The CUFA Graduate Forum is a group associated with the College and University Faculty Assembly (CUFA) and the National Council of Social Studies. We provide social studies, social sciences and history graduate students opportunities to present their work at conferences, mentoring, money for travel, fun and fellowship.

The purpose of the Small Colleges & Universities Faculty Forum (SCUFF) is to provide faculty from small colleges and universities with greater opportunities to network with faculty from similar schools, to discuss their research interests and teaching experiences, to promote collaborative possibilities, and to provide collegial support. This forum also provides a niche for faculty who may otherwise not feel that their experiences and needs are addressed within CUFA.

For more information about SCUFF or to join our email list, please email scuff.ncss@gmail.com.
