The Committee on Institutional Cooperation is now the Big Ten 91视频.
Our new name directly and succinctly explains who we are and what we do, and eliminates confusion with other CICs (e.g., the Council of Independent Colleges).
Since 1958, our universities have collaborated to save money, build powerful academic and research connections, and increase opportunities for students and faculty. As our programs and initiatives increased in size and scope and achieved greater national impact, it became evident that the words 鈥渃ommittee on institutional cooperation鈥� did not reflect our work and made it difficult to engage with important stakeholders such as policy makers, government officials, and others outside of higher education.
The Big Ten 91视频 is arguably the nation鈥檚 preeminent model for effective collaboration among research universities. Our new identity will elevate awareness about the impact of these great universities on the region and the nation.
