Bold Steps American University Annual Report 2018-19

With the theme “Bold Steps,” American University’s 2018-2019 annual report captures the momentum across the university as it embarks on its new strategic plan, Changemakers for a Changing World.

The report is organized around the strategic plan’s three strategic themes—scholarship, learning, and community—and their anticipated result, changemakers. “Change with impact is foundation of American University. The 2018-2019 annual report illustrates the beginnings of change reflected in AU’s new strategic plan and celebrates AU changemakers involved in scholarship, learning, community partnerships, and service to the world through their work,” said Matt Bennett, vice president and chief communications officer at American University.
