UCA President Lu Hardin yesterday spoke to separate gatherings of UCA faculty and staff, in what has come to be known as his “State of the University” address.
Hardin praised both groups for their outstanding achievements and dedication to UCA. He updated them on his plan to slow enrollment growth and focus on infrastructure additions and improvements to accommodate the recent surge of additional students.
He also sounded a hopeful note about UCA’s chances to host a presidential debate in 2008. A decision by the Commission on Presidential Debates is expected by mid- to late October.
