CIC works with college presidents, academic deans, other administrators, and faculty to help its member institutions enhance educational programs, improve their administrative and financial performance, and increase their institutional visibility. The Council is known as both a source of practical advice for college leaders and a resource of ideas for educational reform. The Council also sponsors periodic national conferences on significant issues, such as the 1995 National Institute on Learning and Service, and occasional retreats for presidential renewal. CIC also involves its members in major national projects.
Current efforts focus on faculty roles and rewards, service learning, and information technologies.
Since 1988, CIC has worked with the United Negro College Fund to enhance black college leadership. Copyright 1996 WHES . All rights reserved.
