NU Regents to hear UNMC educational vision for the next century
A new building devoted to educational programs and the renovation of three existing buildings are the key recommendations of a 12-member task force that has been studying UNMC’s educational needs for the 21st century.
The group’s recommendations will be presented to the University of Nebraska Board of Regents today during the regents’ annual visit to the UNMC campus. No action will be taken today. The project will be formally presented to the board later this year for possible approval.

Changes to simplify publication of online newsletter
UNMC Today has met its first goal of the year: to slim down its publication process. Posted earlier in the day, the 2-year-old online employee newsletter will continue to carry a full scope of stories, announcements, news-related links and other campus information. In recent weeks, the e-mail notice sent to UNMC faculty and staff each day has been condensed to primarily include news headlines and links to other sections in the UNMC Intranet.
