What is “SCUP” and so what?

Abstract

Library planners often have the problem of finding institutional or organizational support to assist them with their building projects. The Society for College and University Planning (SCUP) is a professional association composed of university planners, architects and administrators. SCUP addresses three campus planning‐related functions: academic planning, institutional decision making and resource planning, and facilities planning. The centerpiece of its activities is a large yearly conference in which members convene to share innovative ideas and developments in planning. This year’s conference in Boston was highlighted by a discussion on the future of resource planning in non‐traditional universities like The University of Phoenix.
