As collegiate recreation professionals, we know the value of teamwork and the strength that lies in numbers.

So, in May, NIRSA and ACPA- College Student Educators International launched the Get to Know Us program, which offers complimentary membership to one another’s associations through December 31, 2013.

As NIRSA members, one of our core beliefs is that recreation programs are advanced and strengthened through ongoing education, resource sharing, and networking; the opportunities for professional development, learning, and engagement found in ACPA membership present a fantastic opportunity to put that belief into action.


Opting-in to ACPA allows NIRSA members to expand their professional development and networking opportunities.

If you are interested in participating, it’s not too late! You can opt-in today and take advantage of the complimentary ACPA membership over the next four months. This includes access to a multitude of publications, such as the Journal of College Student Development and the members-only Toward A Sustainable Future: The Role of Student Affairs in Creating Healthy Environments, and member-only rates to the Institute for Aspiring SSAOs being held at the Disney Coronado Spring Resort in Orlando, FL.

Over 300 NIRSA student and professional members have already taken advantage of this exciting opportunity—join them by opting-in today!
