“During the last hundred years, higher education has become stratified. The Elite universities...are at a tremendous

advantage as they compete for students, money, and global prestige. Most colleges and universities lie in the Middle, a land where the resources of the top-ranked schools are just out of reach, a region where they find themselves unable to find ways of using what money they have to become more competitive. In American higher education, wealth flows to

the top and bottom strata, but not the Middle.”

Richard A. DeMillo

“There are two ways to [grow an organization]. Take inventory of what you’re good at and

extend out from your skills. Or determine what your customers need and work backward,

even if it requires learning new skills.”John Sculley

Northeast Ohio needs a Great Public University to realize its full potential.

NE Ohio lacks a distinguishable

great public university.

41

How do we distinguish UA from other regional state universities and become the Great Public University of Northeast Ohio?

42

Vision The University of Akron is a

regional state university that is ready to become a Great Public University. The university has a proud history and strong academic programs—it is

a world leader in polymer science and polymer engineering; a national leader in

applied politics, industrial psychology, biomimicry and other applied fields;

and a regional leader in the economic development of Northeast Ohio. The university is on the verge of

going from “Good to Great” by building on its strengths and responding to

the needs of a hopeful world.
