Engagement lies at the heart of the University of Nebraska–Lincoln’s land-grant mission. And, through the N2025 strategic plan the university is focusing that engagement, building on successes and strengthening outreach to Nebraska, the world and alumni.

Those successes include the College of Law’s Tenant Assistance Project. Launched in 2020, the project organizes volunteers to assist tenants facing eviction hearings. To date, project volunteers have helped more than 1,000 families.

As the university enters the third year of the strategic plan, campus leaders recently gathered to discuss progress made toward the document’s six aims and related goals. Videos from the discussions are being released through April 25 with a weekly theme tied to each of the N2025 aims. The fourth video published April 11 with a focus on the university’s engagement and outreach.
