College Reaches Out to B-N Community
Town of Normal Gate
Over 20 Bloomington-Normal community leaders have agreed to serve on the College's new Community Advisory Board. "One of my main objectives is to enhance the College's profile with external constituencies, and there is no better place to begin than in our own community," said Dean Olson. "The Board will serve to balance the internal input that I, as Dean, receive from department chairs, faculty, and the College Council, with perspectives of people from the community who have a keen interest in our endeavors and a vested interest in the results we produce." The Board will also provide a mechanism by which the activities of the College can be effectively communicated to the community, and, in turn, the College can benefit from the wisdom and experience of community leaders in the Bloomington-Normal area and the state of Illinois at large.

 

The Community Advisory Board consists of community leaders who are acquainted with the needs of the community and who have an interest in Illinois State University and the College of Arts and Sciences.
