The 2009 conference at Rockhurst University was overshadowed by the financial realities forced on most of our institutions by the 2008 economic collapse. Attendance was down compared to recent previous meetings, with 49 attendees representing 22 AJCU institutions, JesuitNET, and two AUSJAL institutions (ITESO and Universidad Javeriana Cali). “Doing more with less” and sharing to conserve resources were common threads in sessions, but the mood was still upbeat. The pre-conference program offered a choice of a Kansas City Royals baseball game or a visit to the Atkins Art Gallery. The conference dinner was at the historic Gem Theater, with pre-dinner visits to the American Jazz Museum and the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum.
