Board of Trustees

The University's Board of Trustees works closely with Central Adminstration to carry out the mission, vision, and strategic plans for the University. Trustees give their time and talent so students profit from the best programs available.

The Board of Trustees roles include directing the president who, in turn, manages the University; providing vital policy leadership and oversight in critical areas; evaluating the extent to which the Central Administration effectively supports the faculty and students in their pursuits; overseers of the University's financial performance; actively participating in academic planning; both donating and overseeing the advancement function which seeks funds to support the University; long-range planning; and helping to define the philosophy of the University.
