Board of Advisors to Trustees and Administration
The Board of Advisors is constituted of women and men who have given years of service and support to the College and who wish to remain actively engaged in its affairs. An exclusively consultative body, the advisory board is made up primarily of former trustees and others who, in the judgment of the Trusteeship Committee of the Board of Trustees, have demonstrated significant investment in the mission of Holy Cross and can offer valuable advice and counsel. Numbering approximately 80 members, the Board of Advisors assists the President and Board of Trustees with consultation and recommendations based in their knowledge, expertise and professional experience, all of which contributes to the advancement of the College’s mission and goals. The Board of Advisors meets as needed in order to discuss salient issues and exchange opinions with College executive leadership.
