The Alliance for International Educational and Cultural Exchange was established in 1992 to promote federal policies that support and advance international exchange in all its dimensions. Representing 75 U.S.-based exchange organizations, the Alliance has established itself as the leading policy voice of the American exchange community. The Alliance formed through a merger of two predecessor organizations: the Liaison Group, which represented higher education associations, and the International Exchange Association (IEA), a coalition of citizen and youth exchange groups. Norman Peterson, who headed the Liaison Group staff, served as the Alliance’ s founding executive director. Carl Herrin, executive director of IEA, became the Alliance’s deputy director. Michael McCarry, the Alliance’s current executive director,
joined the Alliance in 1994, when Dr. Peterson departed for a new
position with Montana State University.
