On Friday, July 24, 2026, the Executive Committee of the National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE-EC) voted to “de-charter” the Conference on College Composition and Communication (CCCC). The NCTE-EC announced this decision in an update to all members on July 24th (Backup: Internet Archive).
Unofficial reports indicate that “Of the 16 voting members, 12 voted yes, 2 no, and 2 abstained in a paper vote.” CCCC members are seeking confirmation of the proposal’s exact language, status, governing authority, rationale, timeline, and consequences.
The announcement from the NCTE-EC discusses financial concerns that led to the decision. An earlier member report mentioned concerns related to the culture of Conference on College Composition and Communication (CCCC) and its potential impact on NCTE’s nonprofit status. Later member reports suggested concerns for accessibility at Conference on College Composition and Communication (CCCC) events and their impact on CCCC’s financial situation.
