Join us in the storied city of New Orleans, Louisiana, from May 26 through May 29, 2026, for the MS-CC Annual Meeting—a collaborative event that brings together peers and thought leaders from the community of historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs), tribal colleges and universities (TCUs), Hispanic-serving institutions (HSIs), and other minority serving institutions. This meeting is an essential forum for sharing ideas and strategies to enhance IT capabilities critical to advanced education and research.
