Optimizing the use of campus resources, including the efficient use of time and technology, is essential as we aim to meet the long-term vision of the University. By leveraging technology and prioritizing efficient use of campus spaces and travel time, Lehigh can ensure increased academic programming opportunities and productivity of its employees.  

  • Promote the use of new technology to facilitate internal and external collaboration across the University without requiring travel to in-person meetings. These technology solutions provide audio and video conferencing services across all operating systems and mobile platforms.
  • Collaborate with Human Resources to develop management guidelines for telecommuting and flexible work locations.
  • Collaborate with the Registrar’s Office to adjust class schedules as needed to provide students with efficient transit to and from class and other academic programs.
  • Develop new cultural norms for meetings to give people ample and reasonable travel time.
