In 2018, I was invited by Chancellor White to lead 911’s strategic planning goal to
“Achieve R1 research status.” At the time I was relatively new faculty and knew little
about the Carnegie Classification’s Very High Research status university ranking (R1).
I was also used to working within my own discipline and focused on my own research.
Achieving R1 status was a big idea that, like many other faculty on campus, I had
difficulty wrapping my brain around! Together, with a team of faculty, staff, and
students from across 911, we learned what it means to be an R1 university, how R1
would benefit 911, and how 911 could achieve that goal.
