  • Risk Governance in Higher Education
    Jul 17 2024

    Good governance is a mechanism for leadership to achieve its objectives and make quality decisions. The time to revisit risk management practices and effective governance structures is more important than ever in higher education. In this episode of URMIA Matters, host Julie Groves, Director of Risk Services at Wake Forest University will sit down with Jake Braunsdorf and Cynthia Vitters from Deloitte to talk about how colleges and universities are structuring their risk governance, specifically ERM program constructs and how they are positioned within the institution to support the management of risks, and best practices to communicating risk information to university leadership and trustees, inclusive of reporting formats and how they lend themselves to communicating risk information that equips leadership to act.

    URMIA is partnering with Deloitte on a four-part webinar series on risk governance in higher education starting on August 25. You can learn more and register online at urmia.org.

  • URMIA Board of Directors Nominations
    Jul 10 2024

    In this episode of URMIA Matters, URMIA Executive Director Michelle Smith sits down with Julie Groves, URMIA’s Immediate Past President, Chairperson of the URMIA Leadership Development Committee, and Director of Risk Services at Wake Forest University; Marjorie Lemmon, an URMIA past president and Director of Risk Management and Insurance at Yale University; and Matt Tuttle, a current URMIA board member and Manager, Risk & Insurance Services at the University of Utah to talk about volunteering with URMIA. In addition to hearing their volunteer journey, we’ll learn about the nominations process for the upcoming Board of Directors election, how the election works, and what considerations candidates should think about before throwing their hat in the ring. Our guests are not only professional colleagues, but also great friends so this should be a very informative and entertaining discussion!

    Interested in running for the board? The board of directors consists of 15 to 21 directors who are elected to serve by the voting members. The 2024 URMIA election will fill open positions on the board of directors, including one (1) president-elect, three (3) institutional member director seats, and one (1) affiliate member director seat. Nominations close July 17 and the election will open on August 1. Results will be announced in early September. Nominate yourself or another member who would be a stellar addition to URMIA’s board of directors.
