There are over 30 committees on investor responsibility at colleges and universities across the country. Typically comprised of students, administrators, trustees, faculty and alumni these bodies have incredible opportunities to leverage their endowments for social good through shareholder activism and active investment in the environment and local communities.

Each committee on its own has the potential to harness tremendous economic power. Now…just imagine what could happen if these committees worked together for change?

That’s why REC founded the Committee Members Association in 2007, which brings together committees on investor responsibility from around the country for an annual meeting and ongoing support from REC staff. Together, CMA members have collaborated on REC’s vote and engage initiative, and hosted their first annual meetings at Columbia University and the New School. If you are a member of a committee on investor responsibility, whether student, faculty, administrator, alum or trustee, and would like to get involved, please contact us.
