How to Get Involved

Through the ACM, faculty, staff, and students at member colleges participate in collaborative programs and activities focused on academic excellence and professional development.

Initiatives include:

  • Professional Development

    Faculty and staff can access opportunities for collaboration and development in the areas of teaching, research, and service

  • Off-Campus Study

    Students, faculty, and staff can engage with ACM study-away options in the U.S. and abroad

  • Grant-Funded Programs

    ACM's portfolio of programs supports projects, events, and development activities for faculty, staff, and students.

  • Advanced Study

    We offer students from diverse backgrounds opportunities for mentoring, career development, and experiential research in the humanities, humanistic social sciences, or arts

  • Faculty & Staff Project Outcomes

    Resources created by ACM-funded faculty and staff projects, including curricular materials, assessment tools, and best practices

  • Athletic Competition & Writing Contest

    Annual competitions bring together student athletes from across the consortium; since 1973, we've honored one story each year as our Nick Adams Short Story Contest winner
