Frye Leadership Institute

The challenges and changes of contemporary higher education have created the need for campus leadership with new competencies and perspectives—people who can bring a new framework to our historic enterprise. The purpose of the Frye Leadership Institute is to bring to tomorrow's higher education leadership the insights and understanding of the issues that will inform this framework. The Institute is sponsored by CLIR, EDUCAUSE, and Emory University, and has generous financial support from the Robert W. Woodruff Foundation.

The Frye Institute provides continuing education opportunities for individuals who currently hold, or will one day assume, positions that make them responsible for transforming the management of scholarly information in institutions of higher education. The Institute enrolls 50 to 60 individuals a year. Their training begins with an intensive two-week seminar on the Emory campus in June, followed by a subsequent year-long practicum on their home campus or in another appropriate setting. The training concludes with a summary session that reunites the participants to discuss and evaluate what they have learned.
