Events: NACUA seeks affinity groups

Dear NACUA Members:

NACUA is pleased to announce the availability of space during the 2008 Annual Conference in New York City for various NACUA Affinity Groups to gather and network. As many of you know, NACUA Affinity Groups are self-organized and self-governing groups that gather informally based on a commonality of regional, institutional, or personal interests.

Some examples of past NACUA Affinity Groups include: New York City Area Higher Education Attorneys; Florida Higher Education Attorneys; African-American Attorneys; Virginia Higher Education Attorneys; NACUA Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual & Transgender Attorneys (QUA); and WACO.  These groups are a few examples, but other groups should feel free to meet based on other characteristics as well.  For a fuller description and representative sampling of NACUA Affinity Groups, please visit the NACUA Website.

Reserved tables are available for Affinity Groups to gather during the Conference Networking Luncheon on Tuesday, June 24 from 12:15 p.m. - 1:45 p.m. at the Marriott Marquis at Times Square.  NACUA is also pleased to reserve tables at Monday and Wednesday’s Networking Breakfasts upon request.  Please provide us with the approximate number of attendees in your Group that will be participating in the Group’s meeting at the Conference. 

 

If your meeting is to be included in any public announcement made by NACUA or by a member of the Affinity Group, it must be open for all NACUA members to attend.

Meeting space is extremely limited at the Marriott this year, so please respond to this message as soon as possible if your Affinity Group wishes to meet. Meeting space will be assigned on a first come, first serve basis.  Also, please note that space is not automatically reserved for any Affinity Group that has met in prior years.  If your Affinity Group wishes to reserve space again for the 2008 Annual Conference, and has not yet done so, please reply to this message.

We look forward to hearing from a representative of your Affinity Group if you wish to take advantage of this special networking opportunity this year.  If you have any questions about Affinity Groups or the Conference more broadly, please feel free to contact me at 202-833-5948 or via email at msm@nacua.org.

We look forward to seeing you in New York!

 

Best,

 

Miriam
