Chancellor Harvey Perlman called on faculty and staff to start thinking bigger.
In his annual State of the University address Sept. 1 at the Lied Center for Performing Arts, Perlman descirbed UNL's move into the Big Ten Conference as, "an opportunity to reset the table." And with more than 1,000 in attendance, Perlman outlined four, six-year goals that will help define what it means for UNL to be a member of the new conference. Read the list of proposals and more about the address on Today@UNL.
