The Associated Colleges of Illinois (ACI) is proud to announce the launch a new project funded through a Meeting the Moment grant from the Council of Independent Colleges (CIC). This program is designed to support presidents and senior leaders of ACI member institutions as they navigate the evolving landscape of higher education, particularly in light of recent executive orders and regulatory changes that impact small and mid-sized private colleges.
Through a series of ACI webinars and in-person convenings, “Meeting the Moment” will provide a platform for institutional leaders to engage in in-depth discussions on how these developments affect strategic planning, funding, and operations. By fostering collaboration and shared insights, the initiative aims to equip ACI member institutions with the tools and knowledge necessary to proactively address challenges and uphold the distinct value of independent higher education.
