AASCU Summer Meeting 2025

What Does a Happy Future Look Like? Let’s Talk at AASCU 2025.

📍 July 15-17, 2025 | Indianapolis, IN | Booth #X

As public universities navigate rising uncertainty—tight budgets, shifting demographics, AI disruptions, and growing skepticism about higher education—one thing is clear: faculty well-being is central to institutional resilience.

That’s why we’re heading to the 2025 AASCU Summer Meeting to join this year’s conversation:

What does a happy future look like at America’s state colleges and universities?

At Booth #X, we’ll be sharing how investing in faculty support isn’t just good for morale—it’s a strategy for long-term success.

It’s a low-pressure space to build relationships, talk strategy, and swap real-world solutions with other leaders.


🎯 What We’re Bringing to the Table

This year, we’re focused on helping campus leaders:

  • Create supportive, sustainable academic cultures
  • Equip chairs and faculty with practical tools—not just theory
  • Build momentum—despite budget cuts, resistance, and burnout

You don’t need more initiatives. You need programs that actually work—and we can show you how.
