Administration of the astronomy program
The astronomy program of Eagle Hill is at this time being overseen by an Advisory Board.
As part of the 2023-2024 paradigm shift the institute is working on, we are seeking to diversify our Board structure by transitioning into semi-autonomous Division Boards. The Astronomy Division Board will be responsible for setting its own mission goals and for its own respective fundraising efforts.
The Division Boards of the institute will meet regularly to integrate their activities, with the goal of keeping a Humboldtian balance.
