Board of Trustees at Aquinas College
Aquinas' Board of Trustees
The Aquinas College Board of Trustees is a dynamic group of active and dedicated community
leaders whose expertise ranges from education and religion to finance and law to business
and communication. Through its careful stewardship of College policy, property, strategic
planning and fiscal affairs, the Board of Trustees is committed to advancing the mission
and values of our Catholic and Dominican educational community. The College’s enduring
connection to the Grand Rapids Dominican Sisters is evidenced by their representation
on the Board and service as Trustees of the College.
