Shaping the Future of Higher Education Through Care

President's Message

Dear Caring Campus Community,

Caring Campus continues to expand in meaningful and exciting ways across higher education. We have recently seen it take root at Tohono O’odham Community College, our first Tribal college; MiraCosta College through a Caring Campus Refresh; and Bossier Parish Community College, where more than 80 staff, faculty, and administrators will soon come together for an in-person Caring Campus Academy (CCA).

As we look ahead, we would love to have you as part of our fall CCA cohort, launching at the end of September. This round of the CCA is an opportunity for staff, faculty, and administrators to unite around a shared commitment to student success – strengthening campus culture and deepening the impact of care. Sign up today and join colleagues across the nation in building a stronger future for students.

Bossier Parish Community College is sending more that 80 staff, faculty, and administrators to the Caring Campus Academy at the end of September.

For our Caring Campus Network (CCN) members, we also invite you to our free webinar, “Caring Campus Certification: Application Process and Benefits,” happening at 11 a.m. PST on September 17. This interactive session will take you step by step through the Certification program – highlighting its benefits and giving you the tools to navigate the application process with confidence. Don't miss it - register today!

We are also excited to share that the deadline to submit a proposal for our inaugural Caring Campus Conference: Building a National Culture of Care has been extended to Tuesday, September 30. Proposals are reviewed on a rolling basis, and submitting early gives you the best chance to secure a spot. We can’t wait to showcase your insights and innovations - submit yours today!

Please join us in San Diego from November 12-14 for the conference, where keynote speakers Dr. Vince Tinto and Dr. Peter Felten will join us for three days of learning, connection, and inspiration. Early bird registration is open now through September 30 – secure your spot to take advantage of this discounted pricing.

Join us for the inaugural Caring Campus conference to hear from powerful keynote speakers, attend hands-on sessions led by your peers, and be part of a nationwide network of professionals committed to student success.

Lastly, we were also honored to be highlighted in the Trellis Foundation’s Quarterly Newsletter. As part of their investment in student connection and success, Trellis is funding four additional Texas community colleges – Hill College, Brazosport College, Clarendon College, and Texarkana College – to adopt Caring Campus.

Thank you for your continued dedication to student success and Caring Campus. Connect with us today to learn more about how we can help your campus continue to build and nurture a culture of care.

Sincerely,

Brad Phillips, Ph.D.
