MAJOR RECOMMENDATION : Connect the (academic) dots:
• 80% of the Centers report to provosts and academic affairs • 57% of Center directors have an academic background • 63% of Center directors have some kind of academic appointment Center
directors report low engagement with academic units
Engage with provosts to stand up and stand with Center directors as a key strategy to promote innovation
