Proposal Submission Guidelines
The SDCPA Conference Planning Committee invites graduate
students to participate in an award competition for the 2010 SDCPA
Mid-Winter Conference. Students are encouraged to explore a topic
of interest which has bearing on the student affairs profession.
The proposals are reviewed by the SDCPA President, Past-President, and
President-Elect. As many as three graduate students may be
selected; each would be awarded a stipend of $200. The winning
proposal(s) will be presented as a 60-minute session during the
conference. The cash awards and the conference registration fee
(if you plan to register for the conference) will be awarded to the
Graduate Student Award recipient(s) at the conference. This is an
excellent professional development experience. The conference will
be held February 10-12, 2010 at the Radisson in Rapid City, SD. A
complete submission packet includes the completed form and narrative
proposal.
