Michael A. Gerber serves as President of the Atlanta Regional Council for Higher Education (pronounced arch).
Gerber also served as Executive Director of the Connecticut Higher Education Supplemental Loan Authority, a quasi-state agency which sells tax exempt bonds and uses the proceeds of those bonds to make loans to college students and their parents.
Gerber was responsible for creation of the Connecticut Independent College and University Institute for Research and Public Service, and served as a gubernatorial appointee on the New England Board of Higher Education.
Gerber's license to practice medicine in California was revoked in June 1984 after the California Board of Medical Quality Assurance concluded that he had improperly administered to patients.
Gerber contended that he was not attempting to treat the patient's cancer, but rather to nutritionally and metabolically support a patient who had refused conventional treatment.
Further note was made that the patient apparently canceled a scheduled surgery several days after first consulting Gerber, and although he documented in her chart that she was being treated by several other unconventional practitioners, he did not record that he suggested she seek conventional care.
