Greetings from the NCHO Program Committee!  We are very excited to team up with UNC Chapel Hill to offer you the best possible programming schedule that will hopefully lead to Connecting, Growing, and Going for you and your institution!  The Program Committee has been working to build on our past conference traditions in order to incorporate current trends which will lead the great state of North Carolina into the future!  We now need your involvement to ensure a successful conference.

Let's get ready to Connect, Grow, and Go together! Check out some of the ways that you can get involved in NCHO 2009.

Do you want to present at NCHO? Then Submit a Program Submission form by selecting the link to the left. Deadline for submission is 5 p.m. on Thursday, September 10, 2009.

Are you looking to increase your Housing network within North Carolina? The NCHO Annual Conference is a great way to do that. All Conference participants will have the opportunity to “connect” throughout the course of our program this year. For more information on our Conference Connections program, email Shari Williamson at williamsonsl@appstate.edu.

Are you looking to be involved with the conference, still attend programs, and contribute to the success of the Programming Sessions? When registering for the conference, make sure you check off that you would like to be a Program Session Moderator.

Are you a graduate student or in your first two years of professional work? Don’t forget to check out our Case Study Competition. When registering for the conference, make sure you check off that you would like to participate in the Case Study Competition. Email Jordan_Luzader@ncsu.edu for more information!.

Do you want the opportunity to walk away from a program session with conference givea-way? Do you enjoy have other institutions t-shirts, mugs, trinkets, etc.? Does your department have old/outdated t-shirts, mugs, trinkets, etc. in which they must get rid of because they are dated or have an old logo on it? Then bring them to the conference and designate them as a Conference Give-A-Way. Email Melissa Jordan at mjordan@elon.edu if you have questions.

We look forward to receiving your names and contact information in regards to your involvements.  If you have any questions please contact Lisa LaBarbera at Lisa_LaBarbera@ncsu.edu.

Thanks and see you in October!
