At this year’s conference, you will hear from a panel of lobbyists and legislators on issues that higher education will be facing during the next legislative session. And of course, the upcoming elections will be a major topic of discussion. Both major party candidates for Governor will be invited to speak. As in previous years, there will be specialty break-out sessions, a joint task force meeting, and a meeting of the University Student Government President’s Council (USPC). The Higher Education Partnership Board of Directors meeting will also be held during the conference.
