Conference Corner
Special Edition: Information about NISOD’s 29th annual International Conference on Teaching and Leadership Excellence. The conference is only a week away—May 20-23, 2007, in Austin, Texas. This month’s Hook’Em Up can help you develop your personal conference itinerary—from selecting which preconference sessions, forums, and roundtables to attend; which booths in the exhibit hall that you won’t want to miss; and, even to create your social calendar! This year’s conference, with over 2200 people registered, promises to be even bigger and better than ever! <<https://www.nisod.org/newsletter/hookem_upvol1_no7.html#Conference_Corner>>
