“Independent colleges and universities, such as Reed, are committed to providing a breadth and depth of learning that enables our students to flourish and to adapt to the rapidly changing world around us,” Bilger said. “It is my honor to represent the great work of these nonprofit institutions of higher education and to showcase their positive impacts in our society.”

Bilger will represent Region VIII, which encompasses Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, New Mexico, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming.

“NAICU is so fortunate to have Dr. Audrey Bilger serving in our leadership,” said NAICU President Barbara K.
