Dartmouth's Strategic Budget Reduction and Investment (SBRI) process seeks to identify $100 million in expense reductions or new revenues for fiscal 2011 and 2012. This is an all-Dartmouth approach -- inclusive of Arts & Sciences, Tuck School of Business, Thayer School of Engineering, and Dartmouth Medical School, as well as central administrative services, including the auxiliaries. The goal of SBRI is to make sure that Dartmouth continues to excel at accomplishing its mission, as we invest in our vision to achieve global leadership in higher education. Read more ...

To the Dartmouth CommunityWe have begun the process of reviewing Dartmouth's financial situation and the goal to identify $100 million in expense reductions or new revenues for fiscal years 2011 and 2012. These are big numbers that will mean serious downsizing. With FY 2011 just six months away, this will mean a fast-paced, intensive effort. Given the extent of this financial gap, our work must be both cross Dartmouth and in each division, department and school. We are committed to working with colleagues across this institution to ensure our operations are as effective and efficient as possible. We will seek input from faculty, students and staff about strategic cuts and investments, and ideas for new revenues and innovative opportunities. This website was developed to further involve you in the planning process. As you navigate through these pages, you will find updates on Dartmouth’s priorities, budget, and endowment; a list of actions that have already been taken to address the budget gap; and other information. We also encourage you to submit your questions and suggestions, which we will review on a regular basis. We are grateful for the contributions you make to Dartmouth each day, and we appreciate your involvement in the process. Carol L. Folt, Acting Provost |
