May 4 Visitors Center 2022 Visioning Report

Mapping the Future Cover

After 10 years and thousands of students and public visitors, Â鶹´«Ã½â€™s May 4 Visitors Center underwent a physical refresh in the spring and summer of 2022. With changes in leadership, it was determined to also be a good time to update the Center’s mission, vision, and values as well as map its future strategic direction.

Close to 100 KSU May 4 Visitors Center stakeholders participated. The process began with a situational analysis with opportunities for input through interviews, surveys, and focused conversations around strengths, barriers, opportunities, and aspirations. Mission, vision, and values were revisited in an online workshop. Initial findings were presented to the community in June 2022. The following report includes the findings of the process.
