Hi all,

Here are some great ways to help fund attending the Annual Conference in New Orleans, as well as opportunities to score some free stuff!

Enjoy!



As we wrap up the year, I wanted to highlight some unique engagement opportunities just for graduate students. Make sure to check these out, as you have the opportunity to win and/or apply for registrations and money for the 2015 NASPA Annual Conference<http://conference2015.naspa.org/> in New Orleans!

If you are no longer a graduate student, please contact membership at naspa.org<mailto:membership at naspa.org><mailto:membership at naspa.org> so we can update your member profile.

#NASPA15 New Professionals & Graduate Student Symposium<http://www.naspa.org/events/15NPGSSymposium>



A unique opportunity for graduate students attending #NASPA15, the NASPA New Professionals & Graduate Student Symposium is an opportunity for these two groups to learn, share, network, and develop both personally and professionally. This opportunity allows graduate students and new professionals to draw on their first years of experience to improve their overall effectiveness, to learn from others, as well as to develop personal awareness. Individuals attending will be tracked by professional level, as well as participate in large group exercises.

#NASPA15 Doctoral Seminar<http://www.naspa.org/events/2015DOCSEM>

The Doctoral Seminar was created to provide graduate students who are currently enrolled in a higher education doctoral program support and information to help them successfully navigate the process. Faculty and doctoral students will facilitate activities, conversations, and structured time to reflect about how to be successful in the doctoral experience. This free seminar will include time for networking with faculty and doctoral student peers.

Participants will…
·         Reflect on the doctoral journey…beginning, sustaining, planning, completing
·         Broaden their faculty and student support networks
·         Consider the dissertation process and what it involves
·         Create a goal(s) and find an accountability partner to help meet them

For more information or to apply, please visit the Doctoral Seminar<http://www.naspa.org/events/2015DOCSEM> webpage. Priority deadline is January 16, 2015
