Maryland 36th Annual Student Affairs Conference -
CANCELLED
Due to the unprecedented snowfalls this week, we have decided to cancel the Maryland
Student Affairs Conference scheduled for this Friday, February 12, 2010.
Given the current conditions of the campus, driving conditions in the
surrounding area, and the anticipation of another major snowstorm tonight and tomorrow,
our first priority is to ensure the safety of all of our speakers, participants and
presenters. Full refunds to all registrants will be provided.
