GORDON R. BROLLIER NAMED PRESIDENT OF
THE OHIO FOUNDATION OF INDEPENDENT COLLEGES

Gordon R. Brollier, who has served The Ohio Foundation of Independent Colleges (OFIC) for nearly 20 years as Vice President of Development, has been named by the Foundation’s Board of Trustees as its sixth president.  He has been responsible for the planning and development of fund-raising activities and strategies for OFIC, the training and management of its extensive corps of volunteers, and coordination of efforts for major gifts.  A 1973 alumnus of Mount Union College, Brollier also held several positions at the college within the Development/Alumni/Admissions Department from 1975-1988.  Prior to joining OFIC, he was Vice President of Development for Whitman College in Walla Walla, Washington.

Ed Hartzell, OFIC Board Chair, stated, “The Board is confident that Gordon’s leadership ability, experience and knowledge will ensure the ongoing success and viability of the Foundation.  He has built strong relationships over the years with many of our major corporate donors as well as with the corporate and family foundations.”

Brollier succeeds OFIC’s former president, Jeffrey S. Wolf, who has accepted a position with the not-for-profit National Church Residences.
OFIC is the primary corporate and foundation solicitation organization for 34 independent Ohio colleges and universities and operates one of the largest, most comprehensive and diverse scholarship management services in the state.  OFIC member colleges collectively enroll 99,000 students and award one-third of all bachelor’s degrees in the state. For 60 years OFIC has worked to highlight the leadership, value and excellence of independent higher education and has provided unrestricted operating funds and scholarship commitments through funds raised in annual solicitations of businesses and foundations, thereby assuring continuation of excellence in private higher education. OFIC is governed by a Board of Trustees comprised of Ohio’s corporate leaders, as well as presidents of the 34 member colleges.
