C&U is AACRAO’s long-running professional research journal, which covers general topics of interest to higher education registrars, admissions officers, and enrollment managers. SEMQ chronicles the evolution of strategic enrollment management through peer-reviewed original research and thought pieces. Current topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
Test-optional policies and practices
Transfer student success
Financial aid processes
Student recruitment, marketing, and communications
SEM planning
Institutional budgeting and operational improvements
Nontraditional students
Access and equity
Faculty and administrative partnerships
Other special topics of interest include:
Celebrity courses: C&U seeks input on a potential upcoming article about higher education courses connected to celebrities. The idea was inspired by a Dolly Parton course at Eckerd College, and C&U is looking to compile a list with descriptions of similar courses at colleges and universities. Registrars interested in sharing information from their course catalogs about celebrity-inspired courses on their campuses should contact C&U Editor-in-Chief Christopher Tremblay.
The Global Context: SEMQ seeks authors to write pieces representing a range of international perspectives in strategic enrollment management. Writers interested in contributing to this column should contact Managing Editor
