Superior Mayor Mila Besich is a proud graduate of Grand Canyon University (GCU), obtaining her Bachelor’s Degree in Communications in 2013. Earlier this month, GCU featured Besich in their alumni spotlight series.
From her current positions as Mayor of Superior and Executive Director of the Copper Corridor Economic Development Coalition to her roles on the Executive Committee for the League of Arizona Cities and Towns and the National League of Cities’ Energy, Environment and Natural Resources Committee, Besich credits much of her personal and professional success to her time at GCU.
“Most important, there were so many lessons from my communications degree that have helped me become a better mayor, allowed me to help my clients in a stronger way, and really being able to evaluate situations to be a better leader,” Besich said.
