ACI Board Approves Budget, Re-elects Members, and Appoints New Trustee

The ACI Board of Trustees convened on April 25, 2025, to discuss a forward-thinking agenda and reflect on past activities, while leading though the upcoming year. During the meeting, the Board received a special presentation from Liz Gross, CEO of Campus Sonar, that focused on how social intelligence monitoring can impact higher education marketing, enrollment, and programming strategies. The Board also approved the appointment of Sabrina Bailey, CEO of Fiducient Advisors, as a new Trustee. Congratulations and welcome, Sabrina!

The Board of Trustees also reviewed ACI’s financial outlook, reporting a 10% increase in cash scholarship return to member schools this year, and approved a $1.2 million budget for the fiscal year. This budget reflects the continued growth by enhancing partnership opportunities with Braven to double the number of students served in the upcoming fiscal year. 

In the year ahead, ACI plans to continue to amplify the visibility of all member institutions and their students through strategic digital and social media efforts, reinforcing our shared belief that education is a powerful Catalyst for Change.

These developments underscore ACI’s ongoing efforts to enhance support for students across its member colleges and universities.

The next Board of Trustees meeting will be held on Thursday, July 17, 4:00- 5:15 p.m. via Zoom.
