Nearly 200 members of the college community were on hand in the Montante Cultural Center yesterday afternoon (December 2) to participate in a long-range strategic planning forum hosted by Canisius President John J. Hurley.

During the forum, Hurley reported on the results of his campus listening tour, which included conversations with faculty, staff, administrators and students. Following the formal presentation, participants broke into small groups to discuss potential new mission statements for the college which were formulated by the strategic planning committee.
