Columbia Scholastic Press Association

For security reasons, this ADVISORY COPY does NOT contain room locations. It does include titles, names of speakers and descriptions for all sessions by day and hour. Each delegate will get an official program at registration upon arrival at campus that WILL include room assignments and a campus map.

As you plan possible sessions to attend once on campus, remember we must strictly enforce posted room capacity limits for classrooms.

The University requires that CSPA staff check delegate badges at room entrances and close rooms once all seats are filled. No standees are allowed, per New York City Fire Department regulations. So pick a back-up room when making advance choices on what sessions to attend.

Here are some highlighted sessions that require you to bring additional items to get the most out of the convention.

The Power of Light by Mark Murray on Wednesday at 10 a.m. (requires a digital camera). Open to students and advisers.

Student Swap Shops every hour (requires copies of your publications to exchange with other students). Open only to students.

AGI Advisers Photoshop Seminar, Friday 9:45 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. (requires a laptop with Photoshop software installed). Preregistration is required and is open to the first 15 advisers. You must be able to attend all three hours. To pre-register, send an email to cspa-meetings at Columbia dot edu with the subject header 'Photoshop for Advisers' and include names of adviser and school. Open only to advisers who want an introduction to Photoshop.

Also, follow CSPA on Twitter for convention updates.
