PROGRAM
|
With the theme "Fishing for
New Ideas", the program is the heart of the SIGUCCS
conference, and you are the key to the success of the
program! By sharing your ideas, your successes, and even
your disastrous failures, you help others learn from your
experiences. |
Many thanks to those who submitted abstracts! The abstracts are now posted online .
The conference offers pre-conference tutorials
[optional], a wide variety of technical presentations, a poster
session, two inspiring keynote speakers, and informal "birds
of a feather" sessions.
Pre-Conference Tutorials
 Pre-conference
tutorials are half-day sessions that offer an in-depth focus
on management, specific technical skills, or professional
development. All pre-conference tutorials are optional, require
pre-registration and are not included in the conference registration
fee. Before starting the registration process, please review
the detailed pre-conference
tutorial information to make your selection, as
desired.
Keynote Speakers
Two dynamic keynote
speakers will appear at the 2005 Fall Conference,
Howard Rheingold, author of Smart Mobs: The Next Social Revolution,
and Father William Padavick, pastor of Sacred Heart Catholic
Church in Oberlin, Ohio. We expect both talks to be relevant,
dynamic, perhaps humorous, and filled with some of the "new
ideas" we're all fishing for!

Technical Presentations
 Each
SIGUCCS Fall Conference features two and a half days
of technical presentations, the real heart of the conference.
The technical program consists of over 100 paper and
poster presentations on topics such as:
- Customer Service
- Management of Staff and Student Employees
- World Wide Web
- Security and Policy
- Faculty and Student Technology Education
- Technology Solutions to Customer
Service Problems
- Documentation and Communicating
with your Customers
Abstracts for the paper presentations are available online. |
Birds-of-a-Feather Sessions (BOFs)
 Following
the adage that "Birds of a Feather flock together",
Birds-of-a- Feather sessions are informal opportunities for
you and your colleagues to meet and discuss topics of common
interest. BOF sign-up sheets will be available at the Conference
Information area. You can create your own BOF or attend one
that interests you. BOFs are held at the end of each day of
technical sessions.
