The ACE Network
With a grant from the Carnegie Corporation in 1977, ACE’s
Office of Women in Higher Education (OWHE) started the ACE National
Identification Program, which is now the ACE Network.
Through the National Identification Program, OWHE aimed to address
the needs of women and the issues relating to women’s leadership
in higher education. OWHE identified these needs and issues during its
early years, through meetings with women faculty and administrators
throughout the United States. This mission is still relevant today,
and networks across the nation continue to support it.
The ACE Network is a national system of networks within each state,
Puerto Rico, and the District of Columbia. Each state network is led by
a state coordinator who works with institutional
representatives and at least one presidential sponsor to
develop programs that identify, develop, encourage, advance, link, and
support women in higher education careers within that state. In
addition, members of the Executive Board of the ACE Network serve
as advisers to OWHE, liaisons to the state networks, and mentors to
state coordinators.
