UNIVERSITY PRESIDENT Named Minnesotan of the Year by Minnesota Monthly in 2004, Bruininks regularly speaks on behalf of the University of Minnesota in its important role as the state’s major research university. After shepherding the University through a nearly 15 percent cut in state funding in 2003, he has helped renew the partnership between the state and the University. With Bruininks as its chief advocate, the University has secured increased state funding for key academ - ic priorities and capital projects each year since 2005. In November 2005, Bruininks led a group of Minnesota educators to China Robert H. Bruininks was appointed the 15th president of the University of Minnesota on November 8, 2002.

Already the results of this intensive effort are visible. In the past academic year alone, the University has under - taken initiatives including: • the adoption of aggressive new four-year graduation goals for each campus • the development of student learning and development outcomes that help clearly outline what all University stu - dents should know and be able to do at graduation, regardless of academic program • the implementation of tuition reforms enabling many students to save significantly on the total cost of education • the revision of the faculty tenure and promotion code to better recognize and reward outstanding scholarship in all its forms “The University has undertaken significant reform in the context of an increasingly competitive global market for resources, talent and ideas,” Bruininks said. “Our vision is to improve lives through the advancement of knowledge, and our strategic goal is aspirational, audacious, and, I believe, achievable: to become one of the top three public research universities in the world, with a deep and abiding cultural commitment to excellence in everything we do, across all our campuses, research and outreach centers, and offices statewide. Student Experience and Affordability Innovations in the University’s student experience, such as expanded undergraduate research and study abroad opportunities, a campuswide Honors Program for the Twin Cities campus, and increased emphasis on enhancing teaching and learning, have helped fuel high student satisfaction rates, increased numbers of applicants for admis - sions and enrollment, and significantly improved graduation rates. With more than 65,000 students, students enrolled systemwide—including more than 50,000 on the Twin Cities campus alone, the University of Minnesota is one of the nation’s largest. Affordability for students here and at the University’s three coordinate campuses remains a primary concern for the Bruininks administration. Launched in 2005, the Founders Free Tuition Program now covers full cost of tuition and required fees for low- and moderate-income students statewide. Once fully implemented, the award is expected to benefit 4,500 undergraduates across the University. (To qualify, new students must be Minnesota residents who meet the eligibility for federal Pell grants.) Bruininks has made student scholarships his top fundraising priority. The Promise for Tomorrow scholarship drive UNIVERSITY reached its initial goal of $150 million in October 2006 and has now raised more than $170 million.

The win for Minnesota State extends its unbeaten streak to a nation's best nine games and gives the Mavericks a 19-4-12 overall record.

The main Accessible Arts Calendar listings (emailed monthly through August 2019 and online at http://vsamn.org/community/calendar) offer descriptions of shows, authors, directors, describer & interpreter names, ticket prices, discounts, dates for Pay What You Can (PWYC), and more. This Current Venues and Shows list supplements the Accessible Arts Calendar. On our website as a Resource under Community (http://vsamn.org/community/resources-community/), it summarizes shows at arts venues across Minnesota: plays, concerts, exhibits, films, storytelling, etc. It’s limited to what we learn about and have time to include. The venues are organized alphabetically by Twin Cities venues and then by Greater Minnesota venues. They may offer accessible performances proactively or upon request. Words in GREEN identify some accessibility accommodations. We assume all auditoriums and bathrooms are wheelchair-accessible and theatres with fixed seating have assistive listening devices, unless noted otherwise. Both calendars will be discontinued after September 2019 when VSA Minnesota ceases operation.
