NACUA’s mission is to advance the effective practice of higher education attorneys for the benefit of the colleges and universities they serve. NACUA enhances legal assistance to colleges and universities by educating attorneys and administrators on campus legal issues. NACUA produces legal resources, offers continuing legal education programming, maintains a listserv (NACUANET) and a variety of member-only web-based resources, and operates a clearinghouse through which attorneys on campuses are able to share resources, knowledge and work products on current legal concerns and interests.
