The theme for the 2012 meeting, 'Engaging Aging in Higher Education,' arises from a concern that aging and the aged are slipping from the societal radar screen and that education in gerontology and geriatrics is under threat in institutions of higher education. Older people are not being provided with appropriate educational opportunities. Professional gerontology and geriatrics training in medicine, allied health sciences and the caring professions is limited and deficient. University and college administrations seem uncommitted to the field. Gerontology educational outreach into the community is limited. And, at a time when the global aging population is increasing rapidly, there is limited engagement and exchange with our international colleagues. It is time to focus with renewed vigor on the infusion and diffusion of aging as a meaningful focus within all domains of higher education.
