2018 Annual MeetingAnnual
Meeting Call for Proposals Open

will be held January 24-27, 2018, in Washington, DC. The deadline for proposals
is Friday,

Can Higher Education Recapture the Elusive American
Dream? will address higher education’s role in the American
Dream in the face of a public narrative that argues the two have become
disconnected.
For more
information, please call 202-387-3670 or email meetings@aacu.org.
The
conference will reinforce the alignment of higher education, life, work, and
citizenship by highlighting evidence-based educational practices guided by
clearly articulated goals for student learning—practices designed for students
of all backgrounds and across all disciplines and institution types.
With an
emphasis on how higher education can and does serve as a catalyst for economic
success, democratic vitality, and social participation, conference
tracks include:
·
Campus Climate, Institutional Structures, and Student Success
·
Connecting General Education with Life, Work, and Citizenship
·
Making the Case for Higher Education to Multiple Audiences
·
Preparing Students to be Globally-Minded Civic Problem Solvers
·
Innovation and Inclusion—the Power of Digital Pedagogy
·
Preparing Faculty and Future Faculty for Teaching Excellence
AAC&U
invites proposals of innovative, interactive, substantive sessions that will
raise provocative questions, engage participants with evidence of “what works,”
and create and encourage dialogue—before, during, and after the
conference. We look forward to seeing you in Washington and welcome your
proposals.
