External Board of Advisors

The School benefits from the input of an External Board of Advisors. Members of the Board are active in a variety of public, private, union, and community organizations.

The Board members often act as resource persons for the many activities of the School. They constitute an invaluable source of hands-on expertise and competence that complement the academic component of the School.

The Board’s present strengths reflect the Undergraduate Program’s focus on public policy analysis and advocacy.

Board members are integral to the School’s lifeline to the world. The External Board of Advisors is presently co-chaired by Rivka Augenfeld and Daniel Ricard. The Advisory Board meets three times a year.
