Nicholas Tobier on U-M Detroit Advisory Group

Stamps professor Nicholas Tobier was quoted in the University Record on the University of Michigan’s commitment to integrate and strengthen engagement efforts in the city of Detroit through the establishment of the Detroit Advisory Group.

Nicholas Tobier, professor of art and design in the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design, and a member of the Detroit Advisory Board, said the creation of the group also will enhance internal and external transparency, foster collaboration and promote best practices.

“This is an opportunity for us to think structurally about our collective impact,” said Tobier. ​“Not only will we help one another to have the most positive impact on the city and the university, but this also serves as an opportunity to be more mindful of the communities, neighborhoods, partners and interests that we interact with.”
