IMPORTANT NOTE: We have approximately 60 spots left for our H.E.I Inaugural Future of Higher Education Conference. In order to be sure we have enough rooms in our block at the reduced rate and we can order products, we are trying to get an exact headcount by December 15.  In order to do this, we are extending our Early Bird conference registration rate of $390 until that December 15, 2018 to help inspire everyone to go ahead and register early.  After that date, the rate will go up to the previously scheduled Late Registration fee of $700.  Hotel reservations will also be held at the reduced block rate until December 15 and the reservation link is included in this information.

 This conference is sure to be among the most helpful in helping college leadership learn proven ways to enhance enrollment, create new and more productive revenue streams, and help leaders find ways to move their institutions from “survive” to “thrive” modes. 

 Please join us for this extraordinary opportunity and be a part of the new research to be conducted on advancing higher education institution

If you are unable to attend, we would still encourage you to send a vice president or dean in your stead. We would love for your college to be represented!

 

WHAT TO EXPECT:

Taking place at the Baylor Research and Innovation Collaborative, the conference will provide you and dozens of other college and university presidents with the opportunity to learn from one another through workshops, panel discussions, and guest speakers.

The presidents’ conference seeks to accomplish two goals:

 

1) Conduct research about the most common pain points and challenges facing colleges and universities today.

 

2) Equip you with new knowledge and strategies that you can implement for the benefit of your institution.

 

For information about guest speakers for the conference, please view the attached document.

All meals (two breakfasts, two lunches, and one dinner) will be provided. A celebration and reception will also be held for all conference attendees on the evening of March 21st  at the Hilton hotel.

TRAVEL OPTIONS:

Waco Regional Airport:

Waco has a small airport if you would prefer to fly directly into the city. The Hilton provides a free shuttle to and from the airport.

DFW Airport: and Waco Streak:

Many also choose to fly into the DFW airport, then book a spot on the Waco Streak, a shuttle with continuous service between Dallas and Waco. Spots must be booked in advance, and travel time is about two hours.
