OUR MISSION
To advocate the importance of higher education in bettering the lives of people in Alabama
WHO ARE WE?
We are an advocacy organization representing students, faculty, staff, alumni and other supporters of Alabama's 14 four-year, public universities. Our main areas of focus are creating a politically informed network of supporters, communicating the true picture of the outstanding performance of Alabama's universities, and creating coalitions with Alabama's business and education communities.
WHY TAKE A STAND?
Due to unwarranted public criticism, reduced appropriations and misrepresentations, the future of higher education is being threatened, and the jobs of faculty and staff in Alabama's universities are being challenged. The Higher Education Partnership provides you a means of addressing this challenge. Now is the the time to take a stand and support this Partnership.
