This just in from next week’s Wharton Higher Ed Web Symposium; if you’re going to attend, be sure to say hello! If you haven’t registered yet, there are still a few spots left. http://www.WhartonUIConf.org/ – a great line up is in store!
The 2010 Wharton Higher Education Web Symposium is next week! I hope you are as excited as I am.
Here are some details of interest, to make sure you have all the information you need.
Location, Registration & Food:
The Symposium is being held at Huntsman Hall.
Once you arrive at Huntsman, we’ll be downstairs in the Forum Level for most of the conference. There will be signs directing you where to go. Alternately, just ask anyone you see where the Forum level is, and they’ll direct you.
We’ll have the registration desk open from 8:00am – 11:00am both days. You’ll be able to pick up your registration packet there. The main sessions start promptly at 9:00 and you won’t want to miss a minute.
Breakfast goodies will be served from 8:30-9:00, and coffee, drinks, and snacks will be available throughout the day. Lunch will be from 12:00 – 1:30pm. Vegetarian options will be available.
There will be wireless access if you would like to bring a laptop, and a limited number of walk-up computer stations to check email.
Evening Events:
Our friends at PhillyCHI are hosting a pre-conference happy hour at the Blockley Pourhouse on Tuesday, 7/20. It is located on 38th street between Market & Chestnut. Doors open at 5:30pm and the first 100 people will get one free drink ticket. PhillyCHI has a fun evening planned… in addition to food, drink, and fun, there are rumors of a Mario Kart tournament. Even if you didn’t sign up ahead of time, feel free to come on by.
There will be walking escorts leaving the Locust Walk entrance of JMHH every 15 minutes from 5:15 – 6pm if you would like to walk with someone.
Make sure to check out the networking dinner options on 7/21, if you are interested. There is still plenty of room. You can select one by using your personalized URL below. Even if you are only coming for Thursday, you can still join a networking dinner on Wednesday!
