ABOUT ASHE
The Association for the Study of Higher Education (ASHE) is a scholarly society with more than 2,000 members dedicated to higher education as a field of study. It is committed to diversity in its programs and membership and has enjoyed extraordinary success in involving graduate students in Association activities.
ASHE promotes collaboration among its members and others engaged in the study of higher education through research, conferences, and publications, including its highly regarded journal, The Review of Higher Education. ASHE values rigorous scholarly approaches to the study of higher education and practical applications of systemic inquiry.
THE IMPACTS OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC
Until 2020, ASHE convened in person annually since 1976. In 2020, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we hosted professional development events, pre-conferences, and the general conference virtually between September and December.
In 2021, the General Conference returned to an in-person format and was hosted in San Juan, Puerto Rico. In 2022, in addition to an in-person General Conference, pre-conferences returned to an in-person format and were hosted in Las Vegas. As a continuation to expand access to events provided by virtual meeting technology, Professional Development events will remain fully virtual.
For 2023, the General Conference and four Pre-Conferences will once again be in person on November 15-18 in Minneapolis. In early 2023, ASHE leadership announced that the 2024 Conference would be moved from New Orleans to Minneapolis due to the passage of discriminatory laws in Louisiana during their 2022 legislative session.
Conference & Events Sponsorships
Sponsorship typically covers about 20% of our in-person event expenses, with the remainder covered by participant registration fees. Sponsor support allows us to keep our registration fees affordable and provide access for members at all career stages who rely on these events to learn about the newest research, for career advancement, and to network with colleagues and collaborators. In 2022, the support of sponsors allowed us to offer a Virtual Ticket, increase engagement opportunities, host a Graduate Student Luncheon, and more.
All sponsors receive recognition leading up to and during the conference. Event-specific sponsors are further highlighted during those respective events.

Exhibitors
Exhibitors are an integral part of the ASHE Annual Conference. Attendees are able to connect with you, purchase books and items at discounted prices, and learn more about opportunities to engage with your organization. We were happy to continue engagement with many of our long-time exhibitors as well as engage with new exhibitors in 2022 in the virtual format. We are looking forward to your support once again this year, with both in-person and virtual options.
