Texas Wesleyan University, marking its 135th anniversary, has selected Bennett Partners to lead a long-range campus facilities planning effort aimed at aligning its physical environment with future academic and institutional goals.<\/p>\n
University officials said the facilities plan will complement Texas Wesleyan\u2019s newly developed strategic plan, ensuring campus infrastructure supports its mission, academic priorities, and long-term vision for growth and innovation. Together, the plans are designed to position the university for continued success while honoring its history as Fort Worth\u2019s first institution of higher education.<\/p>\n
\u201cStrategic planning is about more than setting priorities. It is about creating environments where students can thrive,\u201d said Texas Wesleyan President Emily W. Messer in a statement. \u201cBennett Partners brings deep expertise in higher education and a strong understanding of Fort Worth\u2019s evolving landscape. Their work will help ensure our campus continues to support transformative learning experiences for generations to come.\u201d<\/p>\n
Bennett Partners is a longtime Fort Worth firm with a portfolio that includes higher-education projects across Texas and beyond, including work with TCU. The firm also has historical ties to Texas Wesleyan, having developed the university\u2019s first comprehensive facilities plan more than 40 years ago.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is an honor to return to Texas Wesleyan at such a pivotal moment in its history,\u201d said Michael Bennett, executive partner and CEO of Bennett Partners. \u201cThe university\u2019s commitment to thoughtful planning, student success and community impact is clear. We look forward to partnering once again to create a facilities plan that supports both its strategic goals and its future aspirations.\u201d<\/p>\n
The long-range facilities plan will assess existing infrastructure, identify opportunities for modernization and growth, and establish a flexible framework to guide campus development in alignment with enrollment trends, academic innovation, and student needs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Texas Wesleyan University, marking its 135th anniversary, has selected Bennett Partners to lead a long-range campus facilities planning…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":55068,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[12767,863,163,116,118,866,117,3537,92],"class_list":["post-132075","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-fort-worth","tag-bennett-partners","tag-colleges-and-universities","tag-education","tag-fort-worth","tag-fort-worth-headlines","tag-fort-worth-inc-staff","tag-fort-worth-news","tag-texas-wesleyan-university","tag-top-story"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/132075","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=132075"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/132075\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/55068"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=132075"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=132075"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=132075"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
