2023 CAHEP Pre-Conference Chair:


Call for Proposals (due April 25, 2023)

In keeping with this year’s theme of Higher Ed Research: Purposes, Politics, & Practices, CAHEP seeks proposals to present research and scholarly papers or facilitate works in progress and interactive symposiums that (re)consider the international and domestic politics that inform higher education policies and practices. The 2023 conference theme challenges us as higher education scholars to “break through the boredom and confinement of the well-manicured roses of our front yards.” Therefore, we should consider past, current, and even future challenges to higher education and how these may impact academic programs. As higher education institutions and programs face growing political pressure to refrain from teaching critical perspectives, for example, we as a field–as scholars and educators–have to think about the implications of the choice to restrict or limit perspectives and voices. 

With this context in mind, CAHEP is interested in proposals that might explore policies and practices in the organization, administration, delivery, and outcomes of graduate higher education programs; teaching and learning within programs; and graduate student and faculty experiences, including recruitment, socialization, mentorship, and success. As President Martínez-Alemán reminds us in this year’s theme, ASHE is approaching its 50th year as an association, and CAHEP encourages creativity in exploring and addressing challenges facing today’s higher education programs as well as those that may inform the next 50 years. We hope proposals can present conceptual, empirical, practical, and policy-based considerations in the study of higher education and preparation of higher education administrators and faculty. We particularly welcome proposals and involvement from graduate students and proposals that focus on politics and policies that inform higher education practice.
