Thanks to everyone who came out for the CACUBO 2024 Annual Conference last week. Great discussions in the booth--and a special book signing with author Justin Jones-Fosu! Follett's own Amy Turpin moderated a session on road-mapping the launch of campus-wide Access programs, spotlighting the work of Purdue University Northwest. PNW is one of Follett’s 57 public university partners with a campus-wide Access program (out of over 100!). Thanks to Associate Vice Chancellor Omar S. for his expertise and insights! For more on how PNW is supporting student success, read a blog post by Vice Chancellor Stephen R. Turner: https://lnkd.in/e9_eGVhP Kathleen Hayes | Mike McEneany | Shawn Hummell

We're excited to share the success of the recent Champion event at the University of Cincinnati! In preparation for the upcoming Black Out home football game, students had an opportunity to customize exclusive t-shirts with four unique designs and try out the Champion Crop Bar. Six hundred students turned out to celebrate Bearcat spirit and pick up some free swag. Congrats on a great event!

This weekend, we kicked off our #HBCUWeek celebration with the HBCU NY Classic! We were proud to support Morehouse College as they went head-to-head with Howard University in an unforgettable game. The atmosphere was electric—with tailgating, live entertainment, and our pop-up shop—bringing the community together in a vibrant celebration of HBCU traditions. Thank you to everyone who helped make the day such a success!

There is nothing better than finding a new purpose for things that would normally be tossed. Our new partner Refried Apparel is stepping up our circular practices AND apparel game at ASU in one swoop! Colleagues, if you have leftover apparel from events, please get it to our surplus for repurposing!
