If you have a session topic for faculty and/or staff that is relevant and important to the start of school, you may send the proposed session title and presenter names to Liz Wolfinger. Given the three-day format, we have limited room for sessions but we do want to consider all options. We will finalize the sessions, dates, and times by July 16, 2018.
