BIRMINGHAM, Ala., May 19, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Colleges and universities have faced incredible challenges due to COVID-19. Conference service programs -- an important source of revenue for some campuses -- have been in survival mode through the pandemic, adapting to challenging circumstances one day at a time. But in-person events are slowly starting to come back, and it's time for colleges and universities to think about the 2022 season.
