Introduction | The National Association for Campus Activities (NACA) collection includes administrative records, conference and workshop files, handbooks, membership directories, publications, regional maps, professional correspondence, and audio-visual material dating from 1967 to 2012. The collection was donated in March 2012, with the assistance of Dr. Sandra Rouse, NACA Director of Education and Research. The collection is updated periodically with more current files. The NACA was established in 1960 to help increase the buying power of campus programming dollars. Today, the NACA now has more than 950 college and university members and over 500 associate members who represent artists, lecturers and performers. The NACA offers a wide variety of events, educational institutes, publications and networking opportunities for colleges and universities across the country. The Association's programs focus on planning, risk management, multicultural education, concert management, student and professional leadership development, student government, and other services. Through its website, NACA also provides students and professional staff with a number of online programming and professional development tools.
