In 2019, Bill Groves, Chancellor of Antioch University, and the school’s board agreed that affiliation was key to advancing their mission of social justice. Their search for a sister school ultimately led them to their very own backyard in Ohio as John Comerford, President of Otterbein University, and his peers answered the call.
Together, these institutions are forming a perfect partnership built on strengthening the future of our nation’s foundation of democracy and social justice. Bill and John share how this union came to pass and how it will benefit their institutions, this nation, and the higher education landscape.
Join us as we discuss:
- The schools’ founding principles and parallel missions for justice (6:13)
- Why Antioch began their affiliate search and Otterbein’s selection (11:18)
- The higher ed community’s reaction to the schools’ partnership (25:07)
