“It is an honor to be appointed to the ������ý Board of Trustees,” said Cane. “As a former vice chair of ������ý’s Board of Trustees, I look forward to working with the current members of the Board and President Kelly to improve ������ý and help it reach its full potential." 

Cane previously served on ������ý’s Board of Trustees from 2013 to 2018, and held the position of vice chair in 2015.
