The End of Fundraising by Jason Saul (Jossey-Bass, 2011)
“The process of measuring and sharing results has improved the relationship
between the CIC and the member schools.”
Dr. James Duderstadt, University of Michigan President Emeritus, March 31,
2011
“One of the recommendations we’re making is to encourage people to look at (the
CIC) to build this collaborative culture which is going to be so important on a
regional basis. That’s a model that really works and it’s worked for half a century.
That’s a model that we need to emulate on a broader scale.”

The Center for Advanced Study in International Competitiveness
(CASIC) is a collaborative study of complex international
competitiveness issues that have both scholarly and practical
significance. Its successful April research summit is providing a
blueprint to solicit funding and create grant proposals.
Faculty from seven CIC universities participated in a
videoconference with Dr. Myron Gutmann, head of NSF’s Social,
Behavioral and Economic Sciences (SBE) division, to discuss
the future of the program.
The April Big Ten/CIC Head Injury Summit provided a forum for
institutions to identify the current clinical aspects and research
being done in this area, allowing the attendees to garner a sense
of ongoing efforts that exist across the Big Ten/CIC.
