Early Bird Registration Open: AAC&U 2026 Annual Meeting
Posted by American Association of Colleges and Universities on July 1, 2025
As colleges and universities face escalating threats to academic freedom, institutional autonomy, and federal funding, the future of the educational mission and democratic purposes of higher education hangs in the balance.
This moment demands collective action. We must engage constructively with all stakeholders committed to improving higher education and strengthening its vital contribution to the common good. We also must speak with one voice in articulating and defending the value of higher education—for our students, our communities, our democracy, and our national prosperity.
At the 2026 Annual Meeting, – Washington, DC, “Answering the Call for Constructive Engagement,” administrators, faculty, and staff from all types of colleges and universities will engage with policymakers and leaders across business, philanthropy, civil society, and other sectors. Together, we’ll confront urgent challenges, consider approaches to rebuilding public trust, and chart a path forward to safeguard the fundamental principles at the heart of higher education.
