The University of Vermont annually presents one of the nation’s premiere conferences. This year the conference will be held on October 16 – 18, 2023, and will focus on the diverse legal issues impacting all aspects of higher education. The program will feature leading experts in:
- Higher Education Law
- Student Affairs
- Campus Public Safety
- And much more
Through interactive sessions and panel discussions participants learn practical approaches to complex legal situations.
This is an important conference as it brings together a mixture of people from all over campus, unlike any other conference I am involved with. Individuals working in academic and administrative departments, as well as those working directly with legal issues, will offer diverse perspectives on the issues, including remote learning.
