About
We are thrilled to welcome you to the 2025 NASPA IV-E Regional Conference in Milwaukee, Wisconsin—especially during such a momentous occasion as we celebrate the 40th anniversary of NASPA IV-E’s founding!
This year’s theme, “40 Years Forward: Navigating Change, Strengthening Community, Inspiring Action,” reflects our shared commitment to supporting one another through evolving landscapes in higher education while remaining grounded in the power of our collective community and purpose-driven leadership.
The conference will take place October 19–21, 2025, in the vibrant and welcoming city of Milwaukee. From dynamic keynote speakers to interactive sessions, networking opportunities, and moments of reflection and celebration, we are confident this conference will offer something valuable for everyone.
Land Acknowledgment
The 2025 IV-East Conference Committee honors and acknowledges that the city of Milwaukee sits on the traditional homelands of the Potawatomi, Ho-Chunk, and Menominee peoples. Along with the Ojibwe and Odawa, these nations were part of the Three Fires Confederacy, and their ancestors have stewarded this land for generations. We also acknowledge the unnamed tribes and tribal members who currently reside in Southeastern Milwaukee.
