The Academic Workplace
Each semester NERCHE distributes a newsletter that aims to increase readers' understanding of higher education policy and practices.  The themes for The Academic Workplace are drawn from think tank discussions, NERCHE research projects, and conference topics.  Recent feature articles and book reviews have explored for-profit higher education, the impact of technology on campuses, and department chairs as change agents

Informing Policy With Practice: NERCHE Briefs
NERCHE launched "Informing Policy with Practice" to strengthen the Center's role in contributing the voices of reflective practitioners to policy-level discussions through a variety of means.  One result is the NERCHE Briefs, which distill policy implications from think tank discussions and ongoing projects. These briefs are emailed to media, researchers, foundations, higher education associations, and a range of individuals involved in higher education policy development.

NERCHE Updates e-newsletter
Distributed periodically each year, NERCHE Updates is an electronic newsletter for informing recipients about recent and upcoming NERCHE events and activities. Originally distributed as an internal publication for UMass Boston administrators, faculty, and staff, NERCHE Updates is now also available to anyone wishing to subscribe.  To receive NERCHE Updates, please send a message to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
