As N.C. State University’s College of Agriculture and Life Sciences (CALS) charts its future, it is looking for insight from the people it serves – the people of North Carolina. Over the coming weeks, the college’s dean, Dr. Richard Linton, will lead listening sessions in locations across the state.
The sessions are part of a strategic planning process designed to guide the college into the future.
“The goal of these sessions is to identify the major trends, opportunities and challenges affecting North Carolina and how the college can best address these challenges, particularly in the areas of agriculture, life sciences, the environment and quality of life,” Linton said. “Anyone with an interest in these areas is encouraged to attend.”
