Challenging day dawns for University: Ribeau
The new day BGSU faces as it begins the academic year is significantly different from any in the past, President Sidney Ribeau
told the capacity crowd at his Opening Day address Aug. 17.
“This different day is one in which we find many changes have taken place from the day before, large and small, which have
consequences for us all,” he said.
BGSU, and higher education in general, is in the midst of external forces that have the potential to change it considerably.
It will be crucial for the campus to understand the seriousness of the situation and “take on the challenges that will allow
us to define our future,” Ribeau said.
Challenges exist on both the national and state levels, he said, and range from severe budgetary constraints to fundamental
questions about the way higher education is conducted.
