The ACE Commission on Faith-Based Colleges and Universities
Section 1 Content
The
ACE Commission on Faith-Based Colleges and Universities was created to increase visibility for the important contributions of religious and faith-based colleges and universities and to foster collaboration between religious and nonreligious institutions on topics such as access, affordability, and completion that benefit the whole of higher education.
To coordinate the efforts on this commission, Ted Mitchell, president of ACE, has invited
Shirley V. Hoogstra, president of the Council for Christian Colleges and Universities, and
Clark G. Gilbert, commissioner of the Church Educational System of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, to serve as the inaugural chairs. Hoogstra and Gilbert are working closely with ACE to initiate this commission. In addition to the chairs, an initial executive committee—composed of presidents from a range of institutions—is working to help steer the commission’s efforts.
