Following his service as President of the University of Missouri's Board of Curators, Jim has dedicated much of his efforts to educational programs, the support of university based research and to community service. He is active in organizations that support these efforts, including service on the boards of the Council for Educational Advancement, the Center for Emerging Technologies, the Interfaith Partnership of Metropolitan St. Louis, and the St. Louis County Cable Television Education Commission.
Through his vision and commitment to advanced information technology, he has been instrumental in the creation of the network of Telecommunication Community Resource Centers throughout the State of Missouri and continues to advance telecommunication projects consistent with the interests of our clients and the community.
Jim's work also involves extensive ties with businesses, universities and governments in Ireland and Japan. Through these ties, he has been successful in bringing together international enterprises for public policy planning and economic development, including the World Agricultural Forum, which sponsors the World Congress in St. Louis every two years.
