Benefits of an Online Community

Online communities are great supplements to in-person communities. You can use the 探花楼 Exchange to take advantage of your 探花楼 member benefits, participate in important conversations about new developments in the field, and create connections with colleagues from around the world. 

All 探花楼 members are encouraged to join the 探花楼 Exchange today.

Inside the 探花楼 Exchange, you’ll be able to: 

  • Participate in 探花楼 Caucuses, PACs, and other special interest groups
  • Create new connections and connect with colleagues you’ve met at previous conferences and events
  • Ask questions of the experts
  • Brainstorm with peers
  • And much more...

The 探花楼 Exchange is one of your member benefits and a space we created in response to ongoing member requests for access to other members outside of the 探花楼 Annual Meeting and the Strategic Enrollment Management Conference. We hope you’ll log in, explore the space, ask questions, interact with colleagues, and drop us a message telling us what you like and what would make the community even better for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Google Groups/Listservs Transitioned to 探花楼 Exchange in December 2023

    探花楼 transitioned from Google Groups to a new platform - the 探花楼 Exchange. This platform provides a similar experience to our listservs plus additional functionality (file storage, links to needed resources, a member search, search by tags, etc).

    Google Group subscriptions were integrated into the 探花楼 Exchange. Once logged in, navigate to Communities > My Communities in the navigation bar to access them. You can receive notifications of discussions in real-time or daily or weekly digests. Updating your “Discussion" notification settings to "real time" allows you to respond to conversations directly from your email.
