The following serve as
goal statements for the UNR Comprehensive Master Plan.
The goals will be reviewed and refined throughout the planning
process.
Reach Forward
Plan for change in support
of the university's mission of teaching, research, and community
service. Create an inspired vision for the campus with intrinsic
flexibility to be response to future demands, needs, and opportunities.
Embrace Sustainable
Practices
Encourage stewardship
of the campus lands with sustainable practices in design, building,
and the day-to-day use of the campus.
Encourage Positive
Relationships with the Community
With open and inclusive
communication, create a plan that values the community, encourages
cultural and social diversity, achieves mutually beneficial relationships,
and fosters academic outreach.
Foster a Collegial
Atmosphere
The comprehensive plan
should foster a vibrant and safe 24/7 campus life. Strategically
locate uses to focus social and educational interaction. Expansion
of residences to support undergraduate and graduate students will
be a significant element in supporting this goal.
Build Upon the
Historic Character of the Campus
Draw upon the historic
character of the campus to inspire and inform the design of new
facilities.
Engage the City
of Reno
Encourage relationships
with the City of Reno that serve the goals and needs of both the
City and the university.
Encourage Transit
and Pedestrian Users
Plan the campus's circulation and land uses for efficient use of
resources. Encourage the use of transit to access the campus. Create
a pedestrian-friendly campus via land use densities, land use relationships,
and open space development.
