Last call to present at the 2019 NGLA Annual Conference!
NGLA is looking for dynamic presentations for our Featured Speaker Showcase, Critical Conversation Series, and graduate, professional, and general sessions.
The 2019 NGLA Annual Conference will be held February 28, 2019 to March 3, 2019 in Hartford, CT.
Throughout the conference, several educational sessions are offered:
|
| | CRITICAL CONVERSATION SERIES | FRIDAY MORNING (90 Minutes)
Started in 2018, the Critical Conversation Series is a series of presentations intended to engage the audience with topics that are viewed as “critical” to fraternity and sorority life in today’s context. The program format should be approximately 60 minutes of content with the remaining time available for in-session application of concepts. Facilitated activities may include peer-to-peer interaction, experience based activities, reflection exercises, etc.
|
| | | FEATURED SPEAKER SHOWCASE | SATURDAY MORNING (60 Minutes)
A staple of the NGLA Annual Conference, the Featured Speaker Showcase is targeted toward a collegiate member audience. Sessions are offered as mini “keynotes” or “learning experiences” to a smaller audience.
|
| | GRADUATE STUDENT ENCOUNTER! | FRIDAY AND SATURDAY (60 Minutes)
The Graduate Student Encounter! began in 2018 recognizing the need for specific programming catered towards supporting the graduate student attendees at the conference. Topics may be either broad or specific but must focus on the needs of graduate students working in fraternity and sorority life.
|
| | PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION PROGRAMS | FRIDAY AND SATURDAY (60 Minutes)
Similar to Graduate Student Encounter! programming, topics must focus on the needs of professional staff attendees. This may include information about trending topics in higher education related to the fraternity and sorority experience or may include research of interest to a wide variety of professionals. Professional staff attendees may range in experience from new to seasoned professionals and can be campus-based professionals or (inter)national office staff.
|
| | GENERAL EDUCATION PROGRAM | FRIDAY AND SATURDAY (60 Minutes)
Topics for general education programs may be either broad or specific and should be applicable to a wide variety of conference attendees. Successful programs for the NGLA Annual Conference include, but are not limited to academic achievement, leadership and educational development, chapter management, community service and philanthropy, fraternal values, public relations, risk reduction and management, recruitment and intake, diversity and social justice, and health and wellness.
|
| | The Call for our Featured Speaker Showcase, Critical Conversations Series, Graduate Student Encounter!, Professional Education Programs, and General Education Programs closes on Monday, September 10, 2018. Please apply here and select any program type that applies. Please note that all presenters for these sessions are responsible for conference registration, hotel, and travel.
Thank you for your consideration.
