Board of Trustees

IAU is the study abroad institute of The American College of the Mediterranean (ACM). ACM is a U.S. nonprofit educational institution that is governed by a board of trustees. The current board has nineteen members, nine of whom are alumni of IAU. This governing board’s fundamental responsibility is to chart the institution’s course and ensure that the institution has the resources it needs to fulfill its mission. The board is responsible for the appointment of the president and oversight of his duties. The board supports the president to ensure the institution’s engagement in sound strategic planning. The board also has a unique fiduciary role in finance and budgeting, in endowment and investment management, and in preserving and expanding physical resources including its campus in Aix-en-Provence, France and at its satellite centers in Barcelona and Madrid, Spain, and Florence, Italy. Board members are required to make a minimal annual donation to ACM of $1,000 but many feel compelled to give more. The board is required to meet at least once per year in person.
