Greetings!
I hope you all had a relaxing holiday break and are now getting
back in the swing of things. With the start of the new semester,
it’s also time to start thinking about a few important NACADA-related
events that are coming up:
- FEBRUARY
8 is the deadline for submitting presentation proposals
for next fall’s national conference in exciting Las Vegas.
If you have never presented before, now is the time to consider
sharing your expertise with fellow advisors from across the country.
Last year we had 22 sessions identified as faculty-related. Let’s
increase that number this year! If you are not sure about how
to write a proposal, there is a great tutorial available on the
NACADA web site that will help guide you through the process.
- Regional
conferences will be occurring soon. These conferences
present a great opportunity to network with and learn from colleagues
from schools in your part of the country. Visit the NACADA web
site for specifics on your regional conference at www.nacada.ksu.edu/Events/Conferences/Regional/upcoming.htm.
- It’s also time to start thinking
about awards as the awards nomination
deadline is MARCH 7. Is there someone you think
deserving of recognition by NACADA? Now’s the time to nominate
that special person. Check the web site for specifics, including
nomination criteria and guidelines, at www.nacada.ksu.edu/Awards/index.htm.
- And last but not least, I
am in need of 4 or 5 commission members to assist in reading presentation
proposals for the national conference. It’s
fun to read about the work others are doing and have a hand in
conference planning. If you would be willing to help with this
task, please let me know by JANUARY
17 (stockwel@fvtc.edu
or 920-735-2428).
That’s
it for now. I hope to see some of you at the Region 5 conference
in Toronto. Here’s to a great semester for all of you!
