Council of Independent Colleges (CIC) Presidents Institute

For the past 35 years, I have opened the new year by attending the Council of Independent Colleges (CIC) Presidents Institute, the largest annual meeting of college presidents in the nation. I enjoyed meeting this morning with Steve Sproles, Partner/Principal, Derck & Edson of Lititz, PA, the firm that facilitated our 10-year Campus Master Planning efforts. That plan included a space utilization study, parking study, corrective maintenance analysis, and the comprehensive plan. I thank Steve and his colleague for their part in our remarkable growth!
