Each presenter should plan for a presentation of 20 minutes or less including time for questions at the end.

First come, first served—the number of slots is limited to 6-7 presentations. For questions, please call 770.722.7730.

The conference will take place in the Student Center on the campus of Georgia Gwinnett College, 1000 University Center Lane, Lawrenceville, Georgia 30043 (see map below). Coffee and refreshments will be provided. There will be a small registration fee for attendees, including presenters.
