The ranks of the Master Property Program (MPP), a property insurance and risk-management initiative that has saved institutions nearly $50 million since its inception, continue to grow: the MPP’s newest member is Colorado College. WICHE partners with the Midwestern Higher Education Compact (MHEC) on the MPP, working to expand the program to two-year and four-year public and private institutions in the West. Institutions seeking cost control strategies are encouraged to learn more about two WICHE programs that are helping colleges and universities in the West to achieve substantial savings and improved efficiencies. Currently, the MPP has over 100 member campuses with total insured values of nearly $66 billion overall. Participating institutions in the West include: Pima County Community College District (AZ), University of Northern Colorado (CO), Nevada System of Higher Education (NV), Lewis & Clark College (OR), Reed College (OR), Seattle Pacific University (WA), Willamette University (OR), and Westminster College (UT). In addition to saving money, members earn dividends based on their annual loss ratios. For more information about MPP, contact Jere Mock.
