Undergraduates who start a 5 year plan, won't be there to finish it. The only way that it can succeed is through the work of alumni. One of the reasons why alumni are so important is because they are the only effective way to preserve institutional memory.

Practically speaking, it has to be primarily guided by alumni. Undergrads can do the work, but they can't credibly maintain the long range planning and policy adjustments that will be needed.
