William T. Mandia

Partners Jennifer Gniady and William Mandia will present on a panel at the Association of Catholic Colleges and Universities 2026 Annual Meeting on "Crises and Opportunities in Today’s Catholic Higher Education.” In this environment, Catholic institutions can use their strengths to keep from being pulled back and forth as we meet current challenges. This session will discuss real-world perspectives on responding to crises connected to current events, as well as finding and navigating opportunities for growth. By bringing together the perspectives of a school president, its board chair, and legal counsel, we’ll discuss how to successfully meet the challenges and stay true to faith, mission, and community.
