Strategies of Renewal
The Report of the Presidential Commission on the Future of the University, titled Strategies of Renewal was a 183-page report on the arts and sciences published in 1987 following three years of study by a commission established in 1984 by University President Michael Sovern. Among its recommendations were 1) the merger of the CC, GS, GSAS, and SIPA faculties into one Faculty of Arts and Sciences, 2) the merger of the School of the Arts, GSAPP, the J-School, the Library School into the Faculty of Fine Arts and Communication, 3) the merger of the four health sciences faculties, and 4) the creation of common admissions office and staff of deans and counselors for CC and SEAS. It also suggested looking into the possibility of a merger of CC and the SEAS undergraduate division.
