Campus Membership

As UMACS celebrates twenty years of advancing a more sustainable and just Upper Midwest, we formalized  the process for campuses to become a “member” of UMACS.  Formalizing membership helps us better serve your needs, communicate how many active campuses we have to potential donors, and raise the funds we need to continue to support paid part-time staff when our grant ends in the spring of 2025. 

To apply for membership, campuses should identify a primary contact person to submit a short application. Please note that person will be asked to complete a very short annual survey in late fall.
