As lead planner for the University, Sue is co-leading the current campus planning effort. Titled Campus Plan 2050, this presidential initiative includes physical planning for renovations and new buildings, open spaces and plazas, transit and parking, and infrastructure associated with carbon neutrality and sustainability. She is also an important link with the City of Ann Arbor and other community partners where she coordinates U-M projects with local planning initiatives.

Sue is a U-M alumna, a former lecturer at the Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning and former local planning consultant. But most importantly to Sue, she is a proud third generation Ann Arborite and the daughter of beloved passed Rotarian—Tom Dickinson.
