<Title>Building Just Communities: Registration Closes Sept 30th</Title>

<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content"><div><br></div>The Association for Contemplative Mind in Higher Education invites to their <span>7th Annual Association for Contemplative Mind in Higher Education Conference. The conference titled <em>Building Just Communities</em>, will explore contemplative approaches to creating and sustaining just communities: approaches that foster connection while recognizing and honoring difference, with a commitment to the common flourishing of all. These approaches should examine the profound ways in which our social locations within higher education–based on age, gender, sexual orientation, discipline, ability, religion, race, social/economic class, nationality, contemplative tradition–affect and are affected by differing levels of advantage or disadvantage. As we recognize our interdependence and our responsibilities to one another, we can cultivate more ethical, compassionate, and more socially just communities.</span><div><br></div><div>The conference will be held at Howard University in Washington, D.C., <em>October 8-11, 2015</em>. Register now–registration closes September 30th! <span>Conference registration and further information is available at <a href="www.acmheconference.org" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">www.acmheconference.org</a>.</span></div><div><span><br></span></div><div><span>Also, the conference </span>organizers are looking for volunteers.
