Teagle Foundation Awards GLCA
with Planning Grant

On May 20, 2011 the Teagle Foundation’s Board of Directors approved a planning grant of $15,000 to the Great Lakes Colleges Association for the project, “Innovative Pedagogy Network.”

The Teagle Foundation provides leadership for liberal education, mobilizing the intellectual and financial resources that are necessary if today's students are to have access to a challenging and transformative liberal education. The Foundation's commitment to such education includes its grantmaking to institutions of higher education across the country, its long-established scholarship program for the children of employees of ExxonMobil, and its work helping economically disadvantaged young people in New York City—where the Foundation is based—gain admission to college and succeed once there.
