Launched in 2021, the iCons Advisory Board is an independent body of volunteers that support the vision and mission of iCons. Board members advocate for iCons priorities with internal and external stakeholders, including campus administration, CNS Advisory Board, the business community, and the public. The Board provides leadership and expert council in two key areas: development and strategic planning.
