A four-part webinar series designed for student union and campus activities senior leaders who are navigating the complexities of federal policy change. Facilitated by ACUI Past Presidents, each session will be guided by a broad theme and a set of discussion questions—providing just enough structure to focus the dialogue while allowing space for reflection, connection, and peer learning. Together, we’ll explore how to lead with clarity, courage, and care in uncertain times.
Designed for senior leaders, each session is intended to be a rich interactive discussion for those participating at the scheduled date and time. No archived recordings will be made available.
