May 27, 2009: Will McLean, John Craig Join TEF Board

Will McLean, chief investment officer at Northwestern University, and John Craig, executive vice president and chief operating officer of The Commonwealth Fund in New York, have joined the board of the TIFF Education Foundation (TEF). Will has been a stalwart on the board of TIFF Advisory Services (TAS) since 2000. During his tenure, Will has tirelessly and skillfully chaired multiple committees as well as the TAS board itself. Although Will stepped aside from his TAS role in March, we are delighted that he has agreed to remain within the TIFF family by shifting his wise counsel to an expanded TEF board, where he has been joined by John Craig. We thank John profusely for returning to the TIFF fold for a second tour of duty - John was founding board member when TIFF was organized in 1991 and served until 2001.
