2020 Annual Conference Program Committee

NACUA wishes to recognize the commitment and efforts of the members of the 2020 Committee on Program for the Annual Conference.  Their volunteer service through a challenging time resulted in the relevant and informative sessions that will aid NACUA members in the practice of higher education law for the benefit of the colleges and unversities they serve.  We believe that the members of the Program Committee exemplified the NACUA core values of quality, service, civility, collegiality, diversity, inclusiveness, and respect.  We hope you will join us in thanking them for their service.
