Wilson College President Barbara K. Mistick has been elected to the Executive Committee of the Council of Independent Colleges (CIC) Board of Directors.

The election was held at a meeting of the CIC Board of Directors during its 2018 Presidents Institute in Hollywood, Fla., on Jan. 4. Mistick, who has been a member of CIC’s Board of Directors since January 2016, will serve as the executive committee’s vice chair of investment. That two-year term will run until January 2020.

CIC is the only national higher education association that focuses solely on providing services and a broad range of initiatives directly to independent colleges and universities to help improve the quality of education and strengthen institutional resources.

“The Council is pleased to have Wilson’s President Mistick as a member of the Board’s Executive Committee,” said CIC President Richard Ekman. “CIC continues to implement many new programs, projects and services, and needs a strong executive committee to oversee their planning and execution. I am certain that President Mistick will bring insight and valuable experience to the leadership of the Council, and I look forward to working with her."
