VERTEX will participate in the Society for College and University Planning (SCUP) North Atlantic 2026 Regional Conference, Planning with Purpose: Driving Transparency, Trust, and Community Impact, taking place March 8–10, 2026, at the Connecticut Convention Center in Hartford, Connecticut.
The conference brings together higher education leaders, planners, and industry partners to examine how integrated planning supports transparency, collaboration, and long-term institutional resilience. As colleges and universities face declining enrollments, constrained funding, and increased public scrutiny, this year’s program will focus on practical strategies for aligning planning, capital investment, and community engagement.
Christy J. Murphy, LEED AP, Managing Director, and Aurora F. Cammarata, Director of Operational Growth for the Project Advisory practice, will attend the conference on behalf of VERTEX.
