"Update on the Private Express Statutes for Colleges and
Universities," in Denver. It is NACUMS first major
educational effort for its members and the mailing community at
large.
May 1997
NACUMS launches a benchmarking effort among its
members. While not the first effort to benchmark college and university
mail processing, it is the most consistent and comprehensive.
January 1997
The USPS approves NACUMS' proposal to allow Ancillary

requirement, thus saving millions of dollars in postage discounts
for higher education.

existence, NACUMS already has over 400 members representing over

for college and university mail professionals.
