Our Milestones: How Far We've Come!

As we prepare for the big celebration in September, we also pause to reflect on the impact that URMIA has had on higher education risk management. The concepts of community, innovation and education have inspired URMIA’s members to make many meaningful contributions to risk management at their institutions and organizations. We reflect on past innovations and the game changers that have impacted URMIA and our members. 

URMIA would not be what it is today without the vision, leadership and dedication of so many individuals. Underlying every moment of URMIA’s history is the dedication of URMIA’s leaders and members.
