Alumni Board to Meet in Yellow Springs

Date: 6/11/2009

The Antioch College Alumni Board of Directors will convene for a meeting in Yellow Springs on June 19-21, 2009.  Board President Nancy Crow reports: “The theme of our meeting is Focus
on the Future.  Articulating and fulfilling our shared vision of a vibrant and
viable independent Antioch College requires strategic focus, commitment,
finances and a lot of hard work.  Our task as an Alumni Board will continue to
be to renew and strengthen the connections between the College alumni and our
beloved College and to provide a framework that will permit the College
leadership to use most effectively the expertise and ideas of Nonstop and the
broader alumni base in building our new College while retaining the best of
Antiochian practices, traditions and values.  As the CRF Board, we will prepare
for the transition from the University-controlled Antioch College to the
College’s new board of trustees.”
