In 1984 Jason and Elizabeth Rogers ventured to Haiti on a trip that would profoundly affect their lives. As seniors at Baylor University it was a transformative experience because it was the first time either of them had been exposed to that level of poverty, recalled Jason, now vice president for administration and university counsel at Belmont University.

The Summer Institute will explore possibilities to enhance the educational experience through collaboration among NAC&U members, with campuses, and between campuses and their communities. We are currently seeking proposals for presentations that describe existing projects or engage conference participants in working sessions to develop new ideas for collaboration.

For more details and the submission form, please go here.

Proposals must be submitted by January 3rd. 

As always, Summer Institute is open to all faculty and administrators at NAC&U campuses. We would like to especially welcome directors of honors programs, study away coordinators and student affairs directors to ensure that we have fruitful conversations about collaboration in these areas.

NAC&U students interested in domestic study away opportunities now have 11 campuses from which to choose. Nazareth College in Rochester, NY, is now part of NAC&U's Student Exchange. Internships can be arranged during the study away semester. For more on what Nazareth can offer, please visit our program descriptions page.

In order to facilitate study away opportunities, including Study Abroad and Student Exchange, the NAC&U Board adopted a tuition policy earlier this year. The principles of the agreement aim to make study away (and online coursework) as seamless as possible for students and campuses.
