OFIC Welcomes Dr. Michael Gilligan to Board of Trustees

Dr. Michael Gilligan

President Emeritus of the Henry Luce Foundation, New York

Dr. Michael Gilligan is President Emeritus of the Henry Luce Foundation, New York. Created in 1936 by Henry R. Luce, co-founder and editor-in-chief of Time Inc, the Luce Foundation today offers support for the knowledge sector: colleges and universities, museums, research libraries and think tanks. During Gilligan’s presidency, the foundation awarded more than $500 million of grants, grew its assets under management by 50%, and launched new initiatives in historic program areas: Asian studies, American art, women in STEM, public policy and international relations, theology, and leadership development.

The Ohio Foundation of Independent Colleges connects students from our 33 member campuses with Ohio’s top corporations and foundations to make the dream of completing a college education a reality through scholarships, internships, and full-time career opportunities. We’re honored to welcome Michael to our Board of Trustees. Learn more at ofic.org.
