This unprecedented collaboration between ACE and AAC&U reflects a shared commitment to reinforcing the democratic mission of higher education at a pivotal moment in the nation’s history.

As artificial intelligence reshapes the workplace and the classroom, AAC&U and Elon University have released the third annual Student Guide to Artificial Intelligence in partnership with The Princeton Review.

The award honors the Office’s systemwide work to reimagine the TBR General Education Core through a collaborative process involving faculty, administrators, and staff.

At the 2026 AAC&U Annual Meeting in Washington, DC, new directors and officers were elected to the American Association of Colleges and Universities’ board of directors.

A new survey of college and university faculty nationwide finds widespread concern and skepticism about how generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) is affecting their teaching and student performance across academic disciplines.

The August survey found strong alignment between the outcomes of a liberal education and the skills and dispositions employers view as essential for success in entry-level jobs and for advancement in their organizations.

The award recognizes graduate students who show exemplary promise as future leaders of higher education and are committed to academic innovation in equity, community engagement, and teaching and learning.

The Right to Learn: Resisting the Right-Wing Attack on Academic Freedom, edited by Valerie C. Johnson, Jennifer Ruth, and Ellen Schrecker and published by Beacon Press, is the winner of the 2025 Frederic W. Ness Book Award.
