Remember that this Yahoo group is also for Professional Social
Workers who could pay their way to Campaign school. I guess that is
who my initial shout out was directed to.

As for Students, If you are seriously interested in attending I would
ask on Freecycle for ticket vouchers, check w/ family and friends re:
airline miles, I would email UConn about assisting to coordinate
Homestays for other students coming with their students, put it on
your Christmas/Birthday Wish List to your parents.

I am giving up going to a different Professional Conference in NYC
the following week in order to attend.-Cheryl Kupras
