Society for College & University Planning (SCUP) www.scup.org

• SCUP Planning Institute-Educational Programs
• Trends- - Member only reports on environmental scanning of higher ed trends
• Best Practices – Learning about planning projects from colleagues
• Opportunities -to interact with a wider range of stakeholders.
