Sidebar – About

ACAD and AAC&U

The ACAD offices are still housed at AAC&U and the historic affiliation continues through their mutual commitment to fostering liberal education, co-sponsorship of meetings, other collaborative programming efforts, and occasionally joint membership initiatives. Although not required, most ACAD members continue to come from AAC&U campuses and ACAD encourages its members to have their institutions become members of AAC&U.

More information about AAC&U can be found at www.aacu.org or by contacting their membership director, Dennis Renner, at renner@aacu.org.

This is a special membership rate offered to current or former deans, provosts, CAO’s, and other academic leaders from a single institution when two or more persons join or renew at the same time (i.e., all names must be on the application form). These rates apply regardless of how many other ACAD members there may be at that institution. For the purposes of this category, “single institution” may refer to a single university with multiple colleges or schools (i.e., Georgetown University, encompassing the College of Arts and Sciences, the School of Foreign Service, the School of Business Administration, etc.) but NOT to a multi-campus system (i.e. SUNY). In the latter case, each campus constitutes a “single institution.”  Please Note:  New Group Members must use the following form to sign up at this level:  Group Membership Application. Simply fill it out and fax it back (with credit card information) to the ACAD offices.  Once Payment is processed, new members will receive an email confirmation and a receipt will be provided for the credit card transaction.  You may also mail in this form with a check.  Renewing members may use this link:  Join »
