Council of Presidents

In a continuous effort to advance institutional vitality and student success, AGB established the Council of Presidents, a standing advisory group of eminent college, university, and system chief executives. This distinguished group convenes twice annually along with policy makers, relevant subject-matter experts, and leaders from the private sector to share knowledge, strengthen higher education, and elevate the professionalism of governing boards. Summaries from the meetings are published and shared with AGB’s membership.
