Held during NAGC25 in Pittsburgh, this invite-only preconvention forum will bring together directors and senior leaders from honors colleges at HBCUs, HSIs, and TCUs for a focused, working discussion on the opportunities and barriers along the path of advanced learning.

Planned by an ad hoc committee of NAGC leaders and volunteers, the forum reflects our continued commitment to broadening pathways for gifted learners—especially those historically underrepresented in gifted education—and to strengthening relationships with institutions serving these students.

Each $600 raised allows us to extend an invitation to an additional honors college leader, covering registration and participation in both the forum and the full NAGC convention. Seed funding has been provided by the James J. Gallagher Fund, and your support helps us welcome more voices to the table.

Additional details will be shared directly with invited guests.
