As you likely remember, I recently convened a group of university partners to examine all contiguous SOU properties and to offer recommendations on the highest and best use of these assets. The university, along with University Housing, owns a number of properties on the outskirts of campus--some of which are vacant and/or need significant renovation and others that house small university or affiliate programs.
Real property is one of the university’s most important assets, and the Properties Task Force took great care as it worked through the options for each parcel. As with any significant decision that ultimately may impact the university and the City of Ashland, we welcome an opportunity to share the findings and recommendations of the task force with our larger community.
The webinar, which is open to the public, will be held on Wednesday, June 2, 2021, from 5-6 p.m. The webinar link is https://sou.zoom.us/j/81362370150
Following the webinar, we will consider any suggestions we receive and then discuss the topic with the SOU Board of Trustees at its June meeting.
Sincerely,
Linda Schott President, Southern Oregon University
