ACUP Conference Cancelled

For 44 solid years, university in-plant managers have met annually for one of the most successful and anticipated in-plant events of them all: the Association of College and University Printers conference. It has routinely drawn 125-150 managers from as far away as Australia.

But tough economic times have compelled many universities to institute travel bans this year. Many of ACUP's most ardent fans—including several of this year's hosts—were prohibited from attending. So severe has been the drop-off in registration this year that, after much discussion, ACUP hosts have decided to postpone the event indefinitely.
