Okay... my cut & paste function is officially tired. You get the idea ;)
It was an amazing production. The students, faculty, and everyone involved should be IMMENSELY proud. It was polished. It was professional. It FELT like a legit conference put on by event planners and media producers.
Again, my deepest thanks for being able to contribute to the event.
Annnnnnd.... That's all folks!
