    • Call for Proposals: AAC&U Conference on Learning and Student Success – Sep 26

    Posted by American Association of Colleges and Universities on September 2, 2025

    The call for proposals for the is now open! A hybrid event, CLASS 2026 will bring together a diverse range of educators and campus leaders in person in Tucson, Arizona, and online, April 16–18.

    This year’s theme—courageous care—recognizes that transformative education emerges when institutions genuinely prioritize student and educator learning, well-being, belonging, and success. The challenges facing higher education today demand more than defending the status quo. Addressing these challenges requires a complete reimagining of undergraduate education. At CLASS 2026, we will celebrate the educators who refuse to retreat and instead double down on what works while boldly exploring what’s next.

    We invite proposals that bring this year’s theme—courageous care—to life within one of the following conference tracks, which are designed to highlight both core practices and emerging opportunities:

    • AI and Digital Innovation
    • Assessment and Measuring What Matters
    • Cultivating Success Across Diverse Student Realities
    • Educational Development and Pedagogical Innovation
    • General Education and Curricular Innovation
    • High-Impact Practices (HIPs)
    • Undergraduate Education for All in a Changing Societal Landscape

    Proposals are due by September 26, 2025.
