Guiding the Merger Process
Sprint teams bring together representatives from Elon University and Queens University to guide the merger with careful planning and collaboration. These groups are charged with developing recommendations that honor the history and legacy of both institutions while shaping a unified path forward. Meeting weekly, they focus on academic, student life and operational priorities to ensure a collaborative transition.
