AAC&U sponsors a variety of continuing programs—meetings, workshops, and summer institutes for campus teams—that bring together college educators from across institutional types, disciplines, and departments. AAC&U activities nurture the talents and creativity of higher education's current and future leaders. Attendees of recent meetings have described them as powerful and transformative—providing participants with innovative ideas and practices, and shaping the direction of their educational reform efforts. |

Each year, the Annual Meeting provides a broad, national framework and setting for approximately 1,500 attendees interested in higher education--including presidents, academic administrators, faculty members, policy leaders, and student affairs administrators--to gain a deeper understanding of current research, national trends, and innovative approaches to undergraduate education reform. Join us for our upcoming Annual Meeting, which will be held in Seattle, Washington, January 21-24, 2009. |
