For the first time ever, HEUG the Mic was filmed LIVE onsite at Alliance 2026 in Orlando, bringing the HEUG community from audio to on camera. 🎬
In this special bonus episode, Alex Green sit down with two Community Council leaders who help shape the conversations, collaboration, and connections that power HEUG every day.
🎙️ Chris Lopac from the University of Wisconsin Madison, Chair of the GT eForms Advisory Group
🎙️ Lidia Anderson from Central Washington University, HEUG Ambassador and Community of Practice leader
Together, they dive into what community really looks like in Higher Ed technology — from building support systems and sharing ideas to balancing leadership roles, navigating challenges, and creating spaces where members feel comfortable learning from one another.
You’ll also hear:
• How the GT eForms Advisory Group got started
• The difference between Advisory Groups and Communities of Practice
• Why HEUG feels different from other professional communities
• Reflections from Alliance 2026 in Orlando
• Mascots, theme songs, and a few unexpected moments along the way
This episode is all about the people behind the community and the connections that keep HEUG moving forward.
