The Coalition of Urban and Metropolitan Universities (CUMU), the international consortium of colleges and universities located in urban areas that share an anchor mission to uplift and support local communities utilizing institutional resources, has released it’s “huddles” for 2026.
CUMU Huddles are monthly opportunities to meet with faculty, staff, and students of CUMU member institutions across the country and beyond to discuss successes and struggles common to our community engagement work.
This year’s CUMU Huddle titles include "Adult Learners," "Community Engagement Data," "Partnerships," and "Provosts and Chief Academic Officers."
Each huddle is six consecutive, one-hour sessions usually in consecutive months throughout the year. Descriptions for each huddle can be found here.
Please consider joining to learn how your colleagues across the country are anchoring their communities and share your own expertise.
