Join us for this informal community conversation with the CUMU network.

When potential community and industry partners want to work with your institution, how do they find the right contact? How do you connect people and programs across a complex network like a college campus? Some CUMU member institutions have versions of a “front door,” a central location for the public to find who or what they need on campus. Join us for an informal discussion of the many different ways our campuses create opportunities to match people to the experts, programs and facilities on your campus. In this Zoom meeting, CUMU members will connect with others from our network, share what they are doing on their own campuses, and collect useful resources in a shared Google doc that attendees can take with them as a resource.

Facilitated by:

Lisa Weingarth

Senior Advisor to the Chancellor and Executive Director, "In St. Louis, For St. Louis" Initiative

Washington University in St. Louis
