EDUCATIONAL SESSIONS

SESSION TRACKS

To help you with categorizing your program, we have created "SPARK" for you all to start thinking about what maybe you want to share with other delegates.

  • Support: Creating a network that fosters student belonging. Strategies that create student networking, relationships, and belonging.

  • Partnership: How do we help student organizations provide education in residential spaces and bring peers together?

  • Amplify: Inspiring and elevating student leaders; What strategies do student leaders use to advocate for themselves and their organizations?

  • Recognize: How do we use recognition to motivate our communities, and what kind of impact do we want recognition to have on our communities?

  • Kindness: How do we build and sustain empathy within our residential communities? How do we pass those skills along?

If you are interested in presenting an Educational Session, please complete the proposal form to pitch your session. Each session must be around 45 minutes long. For the proposal, please limit your pitch to 200 words.

 

The proposal form will be open August 24th, at 8:00 AM EST and will close on September 28th at 11:59 PM EST. We will provide feedback to each proposal from September 29th to October 2nd.
