The 2025 Conference Program Team is creating a meaningful and memorable experience you in New York City, March 16–20. Through the planning process, the team was drawn to three main themes: Connecting, Innovating, and Big Ideas.
- Connecting: We want you to connect with each other, yourself, or and your work. We hope you’ll leave New York with a fuller heart than you came.
- Innovating: We look forward to providing an educational experience that’s world-class, following in the footsteps of the city, which is led by creativity and the idea that anything is possible.
- Big Ideas: New York is the Big Apple after all. We invite big ideas to be shared, so that when we leave, we’re ready to keep ourselves, our profession, and this Association moving forward.
It is our belief that guided by these themes and in partnership with our own ACUI Core Values we’re already working to create an impactful and meaningful Conference experience for everyone.
Call for Sessions
We are excited to be hosting the 2025 ACUI Annual Conference from March 16–20 in New York City, and it is our hope that educational submissions help create a meaningful and engaging educational experience for all of our attendees. Students and professional staff from all specialities, levels of leadership, regions, and involvement within ACUI are invited to submit a proposal. As you consider your session proposal, we ask that you reflect on our annual conference themes: Connections, Innovations and Big Ideas.
Connections include the various ways you interact with others on your campus or in your community either through trainings, programming, events, etc. Innovations can include new projects, programs, initiatives or new ways about doing your work on your campus or community. No idea is too small or too big! Finally, we welcome Big Ideas, centered around new goals and concepts within and outside of higher education that can potentially change or evolve how we currently operate.
In addition, our members have identified areas that they are particularly interested in learning more about and we ask that you consider providing content around the following core competencies:
- Assessment, Evaluation, & Research
- Fiscal Management
- Marketing
- Social Justice
In the submission form, you will have an opportunity to outline your session and to be considered for inclusion in New York City in 2025. The deadline for submissions is Tuesday, September 10.
