In February, Linfield President Miles K. Davis was selected as a board member of the National Association of Independent Colleges and Universities (NAICU).
With more than 1,000 colleges, universities and associations as members, NAICU serves as the unified national voice of independent higher education and reflects the diversity of private, nonprofit higher education in the U.S.
Davis was among several new additions to the board, whose members set the association’s agenda on federal higher education policy, oversee the organization’s financial administration, and encourage support for the NAICU’s priorities and initiatives.
Davis is the representative of Region VIII, which covers institutions in Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, New Mexico, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, Washington and Wyoming. His three-year term ends in February 2022.
