RESOURCES
The power of CUMU is our ability to connect and convene members to address critical challenges, share impactful solutions, and gain national visibility. Together we work to amplify the vital connection between urban and metropolitan campuses and our communities, recognizing that “place” transcends mere geography. We invite you to explore and share resources that draw on outcomes of CUMU programs, research and praxis published in Metropolitan Universities journal and the work being done on member campuses and in the communities where they are anchored.

CUMU members are engaged in a wide range of innovative initiatives to address the challenges facing their communities.

Hispanic Serving Institutions (HSI)
CUMU members serve diverse groups of students, close equity gaps, and are champions for social and economic mobility for all students. Several CUMU members are designated either as Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs) or emerging HSIs.
