Board of Trustees

The Board of Trustees, as provided by the revised Articles of Incorporation, consists of a maximum of 33 people and a minimum of 13, of whom the majority must be members of the Religious Society of Friends. Members of the Board are appointed for four-year terms, with a limit of three successive terms. Each year faculty and student representatives meet with the Board on a regular basis.

All corporate power and authority is vested in and exercised by or under the direction of the Board of Trustees. The Board meets in plenary session three or four times a year. Interim meetings of the Executive Committee are held as needed, usually bi-monthly.

Officers of the Board are Chair, Vice-Chair, Secretary, Treasurer and Assistant Secretary. Standing committees include: Executive (the officers and committee chairs), Finance & Audit, Quaker Connections, and Trusteeship. Ad hoc committees are set up from time to time and include Academic Affairs & Enrollment Management, Advancement, Buildings & Grounds, External Relations, Marketing & Communications, and Student Affairs.  Additionally, trustees often serve on task forces that consider particular areas of College operations.
