Did you know that NACUBO’s 2024 National Profile of Higher Education Chief Business Officers found that 77% of chief business officers are responsible for risk management? In the latest #NACUBOInBrief podcast, I speak with Bronté Burleigh-Jones, CFO, vice president, and treasurer at American University; and Keesha Trim, senior director of risk management at the University of Richmond, about who bears the responsibility of safety and security of a campus community—and how to manage that responsibility. I’m excited to learn even more about the various risk and insurance challenges our members face next week at the URMIA - University Risk Management & Insurance Association Annual Conference.
