Hello USC Rossier students,
Here are two upcoming opportunities in which you might be interested:
First: The Education Writers Association is coming to USC on May 16-18. Five hundred of the nation’s education reporters will be here to learn and network and meet educators and professors who are leading their fields, including several faculty members from USC Rossier. The university is looking for volunteers to help out during smaller sessions by doing some light room management—making sure microphones are turned on, helping connect laptops to projectors if needed, etc. All volunteers will be able to attend conference sessions for free ($700 value). If you would be interested in volunteering, please let me know (rossbren@rossier.usc.edu). Here is more information about the national seminar: https://www.ewa.org/71st-ewa-national-seminar. Please note that this event is the week after commencement.
Second: USC Rossier has several scholarships to attend the Wednesday, April 18 session at the ASU+GSV conference. The ASU+GSV Summit attracts more than 4,000 leaders from across the learning and talent spectrum. Attendees will include leaders from the enterprise, investment, higher education and PreK–12 communities. The scholarship waives the registration fee ($900 value); attendees will be responsible for their own travel. Here’s the agenda for Wednesday: https://www.asugsvsummit.com/agenda/Wednesday. If you are interested and available to attend this conference, please contact Doug Lynch at douglael@usc.edu.
