MESSAGE FROM THE DEAN Dear Friends, I have been spending significant time and effort working with many of my academic and administrative colleagues as we spearhead the effort to envision and create the strategic plan for the university. The plan involves both comprehensive plans for the university and each of the schools. This process requires steering committees from both the university and schools to continuously share information to identify common goals and strategies so that the work of various components has alignment. This is critical in order for the institution to clearly identify what it is and what it wants to become, in order to formulate a realistic yet innovative plan as to how it will get there. One of the reasons I felt so comfortable with handling the university’s strategic plan is that approximately ten years ago, the dental school faculty and staff created an outstanding strategic plan that, with occasional updates, we have carefully followed. This plan and its execution has allowed the School of Dental Medicine to flourish. We see this in many tangible ways, from the superiority and increased number of our dental school applicants, to the quality of our faculty, research, curriculum and support from alumni. The school enjoys stability while leading the way in dental education through our many innovations on the teaching and research fronts. With all these successes, the School of Dental Medicine has not been resting on our laurels. We are currently revising the strategic plan for the school. Through this process we will create a new set of priorities and goals that will take us through the next five- to seven-year timeframe. We continue to evaluate each aspect of our new curriculum and envision how it should look in the future. We consider how our research program should grow and how the clinical experience of our students will evolve over this time period. We also want to think about and plan for how best to engage our alumni, students, applicants and the rest of the university. We must consider the best administrative structure to accomplish this while being mindful of how we will meet our financial obligations as the external environment will change. Avishai Sadan, D.M.D., chairman of the Department of Comprehensive Care, is chairing the steering committee. He can be reached at avishai.sadan@case.edu. Members: Sami Chogle J. Martin Palomo Yiping Han Leena Palomo Roma Jasinevicius John Smolik Marius Laniauskas Kristin Victoroff I enthusiastically encourage you to contact Avishai or anyone on the committee to share your thoughts on what you believe to be our priorities or how we should envision ourselves going forward. Jerold S. Goldberg, D.D.S. ’70 Dean, School of Dental Medicine Interim Provost, Case Western Reserve University jerold.goldberg@case.edu 1
