Greetings from GPACAC
The Great Plains Association for College Admission Counseling

What's Happenin?

In the spring of 2009 GPACAC adopted a new strategic plan that focuses on a number of goals and new initiatives, including a desire to increase membership, creating a policies and procedures manual, and a concentration on our fiscal responsibilities, to name just a few. Our membership also passed numerous bylaw changes this spring, one to highlight is our executive board committee structure. The new bylaws will provide greater flexibility for the establishment of new committees and further enhance the services our association provides for its members and the students in Nebraska, Kansas, and Oklahoma. Congratulations to David Burge, University of Nebraska Lincoln, on his recent three-year appointment to NACAC’s national technology committee.

I encourage you to get involved with GPACAC by completing and submitting the Volunteer Form. One of the goals of the new strategic plan is to have representation on our committees from all three of our states. If at anytime this year you have questions about the organization or the work we do in assisting students, please do not hesitate to contact me. Mark your calendar now for our spring conference – April 11-13, 2010 at the Overland Park Marriott.
