CLAC Conference, 2025

As the conference theme this year-- CLAC Attack(Ed)-- suggests, many of us feel particularly under siege these days.  Whether it's the enrollment cliff, cybercriminals, uncertainty of federal funding and resources, the media, global supply chains, or any of a myriad of other threats or concerns; it can be hard to navigate as an institutional leader.  Just the sheer volume and variety of challenges can feel overwhelming. Join a few colleagues for a highly interactive and also informal discussion of the challenges (and maybe even some opportunities?) that come from leading in times of great institutional uncertainty.  Bring your questions, ideas and insights!  Let's share our best thinking on approaches for navigating in these particularly rough waters.

This conversation will cover our implementation processes for Amplify GenAI. We will share success stories and hurdles from different institutions. 

This session will be a debrief of the two CLAC Mindshares on the topic of AI. The first was in October at Denison University and the second will be a CLAC pre-conference on June 9-10th. This session will summarize the lessons and approaches being used to evaluate and support AI efforts across CLAC institutions. We will collectively reflect on AI conversations that occurred throughout the CLAC conference and identify ways we can continue to support each other's AI efforts.
