2012 Academic Affairs Winter Meeting

February 9-11, 2012 | JW Marriott San Antonio Hill Country, Texas

AASCU 2012 Academic Affairs Winter Meeting promises to be a powerful conference. The theme, “Tools and Strategies for Institutional Transformation,” explores ways AASCU member-campuses are using ideas taken from their own experiences, previous meetings and the Red Balloon Project in order to better tackle a new century of unique challenges. Data analytics will drive a deep look into course redesign, including blended courses, “flipped” courses, large course transformation and national courses created and taught by consortiums of faculty

Provosts are welcome to invite anyone form their campus to participate. In the previous summer conference, associate provosts, deans, faculty members and senior institutional officers joined us in stimulating discussion.

As a key sponsor, Destiny Solutions will be showcasing Destiny One^TM, the premier lifelong learning business solution designed exclusively for the divergent needs of non-traditional education. Destiny Solutions executives will also be hosting an invitation-only executive luncheon.
