CIC’s International Higher Education Partners initiative is planning a program in Mexico in summer 2008. The program is designed to help presidents of independent colleges and universities to expand their international knowledge and establish contacts that could lead to partnerships and exchanges with Mexican institutions. Trip organizers include Jonathan A. Brown (pictured right), president of the Association of Independent California Colleges and Universities, and Guillermo Hernández Duque Delgadillo (center), rector of the Universidad Politécnica de Aguascalientes. Wesley College (DE) President Scott Miller (left) also participated in a planning meeting for the trip at CIC on September 10.

Program details will be announced in early November 2007.
