A Message From Our President

Dear PCACAC Community:

Last week, many of us had the opportunity to gather at NACAC in Columbus, Ohio for a time of learning, connection, and professional growth. As always, it was a wonderful chance to reconnect with colleagues, build new relationships, and gain valuable insights into the incredible work taking place across our profession. PCACAC was proudly represented throughout the conference. Our members served as panelists, presenters, and leaders, and we had a strong presence at the college fair. We also hosted our first official PCACAC Reception at Wine on High, which was a highlight of the week and an event we look forward to continuing in the future.  A special congratulations to our Rising Star Award winner, Shawn Ficadenti!

While I am energized by the remarkable contributions of PCACAC members, the conference also reminded me of the important work that still lies ahead. It is essential that we share our expertise, innovations, and best practices with one another to strengthen our collective impact.

In the coming weeks, there will be several opportunities to do just that. The call for session proposals for our April conference will open soon. If you discovered something at NACAC worth sharing or have meaningful work of your own that could benefit colleagues, I encourage you to submit a proposal. Additionally, we will host another virtual Committee Fair on Tuesday, November 18, where members can learn more about joining committees, volunteering, and pursuing leadership roles within PCACAC. Save the date!

I am continually inspired by the dedication and accomplishments of our members, and I look forward to ensuring your work and voices are amplified.

Wishing you a wonderful and productive semester,

Rachel Cleaver
PCACAC President
