"The open discussion sessions (by role or job responsibilities) remain my favorite sessions of the conference. The last two years I have taken the most away from these conversations because of the opportunity to talk to others who do similar work on their day-to-day as me. I left with a short list of individuals I plan to follow up with to further discuss our alumni engagement processes and practices."
"As someone without a previous background in higher education, this was an extremely valuable conference for me to better understand how my school is different and similar from others. There is a lot of variation in our field that I wasn't previously aware of. The conference has a very collaborative and supportive energy that makes it easy to ask for advice and learn more about other school's tips and tricks."
"This was my first conference, and I love the ability to connect with others around the country. Loved the conference and look forward to Iowa next year!"
