“This is a big conference with a small conference feel. The atmosphere was positive, collegial, and helpful. Lots of variety in topics. So many sessions sounded good it was often difficult to choose. Obviously so much thought and planning went into everything!” –Kristie Daniel-DiGregorio, El Camino College, CA “I loved the great experiential sessions, a terrific conference staff always ready to help, and participants so friendly and willing to share. This conference is what all conferences should aspire to be!”–Marianne Auten, Paradise Valley Community College, AZ “This is the best conference I attend because I come away with real, practical, usable ideas and activities and everyone is so willing to share.”–RuthAnn S. North, Faculty, Success Strategies, Wisconsin Indianhead Technical College, WI
