Baltimore’s Inner Harbor The Renaissance Hotel Welcome to the CUMU Conference Conveniently Dear Colleagues,

Welcome to Baltimore and the 13th Annual CUMU International Conference. The Baltimore area is home to more than fifteen colleges and universities and over 100,000 college students who contribute their talents and energy to the Baltimore- located in the Washington DC metropolitan region.
