(UND Today) – February marked a major milestone in the University of North Dakota’s campus planning process, as the campus community came together to help shape the future of UND’s physical campus. The launch of the plan’s Discovery phase generated strong participation and enthusiasm across campus, signaling broad interest in reimagining how UND’s spaces can support our evolving academic, research and community needs for decades to come.

The Discovery phase focused on listening and learning, and included multiple opportunities for engagement, such as campus-wide surveys, an Open Forum, leadership interviews, student tabling, building tours and the collection and analysis of both quantitative and qualitative data. Together, these efforts are creating a comprehensive and realistic picture of current conditions and future needs.

“The campus planning process is a critical step in the continued evolution of UND,” said Brandon Wallace, senior financial accountant and president of the Staff Senate.

“This Discovery phase provided staff a meaningful voice in shaping the environment that supports the day-to-day work of the University, ensuring spaces and systems are designed for long-term efficiency, safety and pride in our work. We encourage staff to stay engaged throughout the process, and we truly value their input.”
