Trustees

Reliance College Boards of Trustees and Advisors are individuals highly accomplished from a wide variety of disciplines. They are all deeply committed to our core values of reason, individualism, and freedom. Moreover they are committed to education that furthers these values, especially through the development of independent, reasoned judgment. Most have been with our mother organization, The Reason, Individualism, Freedom Institute, for over ten years.
