Kennesaw State University is working on a new strategic plan and will present it in August, President Dan Papp said Thursday.

The plan would carry the college through 2017 and set it on a path to "become a nationally recognized university," Papp said.

The college is the fourth-largest in the University System of Georgia and enrolls more than 24,000 students.

The school is in varying stages of development with several buildings including a new dorm, a second dining hall, a $35 million student recreation center and a $20.3 million education building.
