Testimonials

The work of the [Association for Undergraduate Education at Research Universities] has never been more important to research universities than it is TODAY.

— Michael T. Brown, former Provost & Executive Vice President, University of California System (October 16, 2019)

I have participated in the [Association for Undergraduate Education at Research Universities] National Meeting since 2008 and have found them to be thought-provoking and well aligned with my work in undergraduate academic affairs. [UERU], and the UVP Network, is the single best organization for me to interact with others doing the same work, resulting in new ideas and new collaborations.

Who's the Bono of higher education? It's UERU.

--Richard J. Reddick, Senior Vice Provost and Dean of the Undergraduate College, University of Texas, Austin (January 2024).

The 2018 UVP Network meeting of [UERU] at UT Austin was the first one that I attended and I was impressed with the engaging and thought-provoking discussions on ways to advance undergraduate education and student success. I had the opportunity to network with peers and exchange ideas on innovative strategies that have been shown to improve student retention and persistence. I believe [UERU] is an invaluable resource network that provides, via a supportive environment, a wealth of knowledge on best practices on matters related to strengthening the undergraduate student experience and success at research universities. It is also a network where new ideas can be formed and explored.

— Nikos Varelas, Vice Provost for Undergraduate Affairs and Academic Programs, University of Illinois at Chicago. 2018 UVP 101 participant.
