Registration Open: 2022 CUMU Annual Conference: The Essential Role of Urban and Metropolitan Universities – Oct 23-26

Posted by Coalition of Urban and Metropolitan Universities on April 12, 2022

After two years, we’re excited to be back in person in San Diego, October 23-26, 2022, for the 2022 CUMU Annual Conference: The Essential Role of Urban and Metropolitan Universities. We invite you to join us to explore how the urban mission can be fully integrated into operations, structure, partnerships, and academic objectives.

As our institutions and communities continue to navigate a global pandemic, wrestle with a long-overdue racial reckoning, face environmental challenges, and witness the great inequality in how communities are able to respond to these challenges—we recognize that we are still in the midst of crisis. Our conference offers an opportunity to pause and reflect on how we are responding to our current moment while also looking forward as we begin to articulate how we emerge from crisis.

This year’s conference invites us to consider the essential role urban and metropolitan universities play in leading a recovery grounded in community, equity, and innovation.
