GUIDELINES FOR PRESENTERS
If your work has been selected for presentation at the 2009 University Writing and Research Symposium at The George Washington
University, congratulations.
The University Writing Program would like to thank you for challenging
yourself to take on this significant work at a busy time of the
semester.
An academic conference like the Symposium is meant not simply
as a chance to to present finished work, but more importantly as an
opportunity for scholars to share
work in progress with other scholars and with an engaged audience.
The Symposium is open to the public, and selection to the Symposium is
an honor, so please invite your friends, colleagues, professors,
parents, and anyone else you’d like to hear you speak.
Orientation
The 2009 Symposium will take place Thursday-Friday,
April 23-24 at a number of locations
on the Foggy Bottom and Mount Vernon campuses. On both days, it will run from 10:00-5:15.
An information table
will be set up in the entrance-area lobby to Post Hall
in the Academic Building (large brick building with white columns on
the quad) and on the thrid floor of Gelman Library.
Logistics
Plan to arrive at the room for your session at least 20
minutes before the session is scheduled to begin, and earlier
if you'll need
to test equipment, set up display
materials, or arrange performance
space. Speakers are advised to bring bottled water.
