SHARE YOUR KNOWLEDGE
Many of you have told me how much you like the conference, but the bulk of
the credit goes to the Speakers, Presenters and Panelists who prepare
excellent materials and slides, speak to issues and needs you care about and
share their expertise and experience. Speakers MAKE the Conference.
We still haven't decided on an over-arching theme for the conference, but we
do have some ideas about what kinds of topics
people want to hear about. Below are some possible tracks/sessions that we
are planning. If you have experience or ideas that you would like to share,
become a Speaker. Your conference registration fee is waived, though you
will have to cover your own transportation and hotel costs.
If several people propose similar topics, I may group them into a panel of
presenters. In the past, we have turned down very few
speakers, but that doesn't let you off the hook for doing the necessary work
to turn out a great presentation. If you are
interested in becoming a speaker or panelist, let me know. If you want to
speak, but can't decide on a topic, send me an email with
your areas of expertise and I will try to accommodate you. This is YOUR
conference, help me to make it GREAT!
Here are SOME of the subject areas I would like to see covered:
- Wireless Computing: Making it Work
- The BEST Wired Law School Shootout (this should be fun)
- Technology Deans Should Know About
- Managing the Law School IT Enterprise
- Webmastering Tips and Tricks
