TANNER CONFERENCE APPLICATION


 
 



Application Deadline: Tuesday, September 9, 2008, noon


Thank you for applying to participate in the 2008 Tanner Conference. We are delighted that you would like to share your thoughts, reflections, and knowledge from your off-campus experience with the College community. We look forward to reading your application.

-The Tanner Conference Committee


Application Procedure:
  • You are allowed to participate in only one Tanner presentation.
  • You may apply as an individual or in groups with a six person maximum.*
  • Submit one application form per presentation. Therefore, if applying either as an individual or as a group, there should only be one application.
  • You must secure an on-campus faculty or staff advisor. Discuss your abstract and presentation with your advisor. Arts-related projects must have an Art/Art History advisor.
  • Have your advisor review your presentation title and abstract (maximum 150 words) before submission.

*Grouping:

  • Individual and small group applicants (1-3 people) are highly likely to be paired with other presenters.
  • Large group applicants (4-6 people) are less likely to be joined by additional presenters.
  • All small and large group applicants should have a thematic connection linking their collaboration. Individual and small group applicants will be grouped by the committee based on similar characteristics in their experiences and insights.
  • The order in which you list the applicants on the application is the order in which you will be presenting at the Tanner Conference if accepted. Therefore, the primary contact person, the person listed first on the application, should not only be responsible for collecting everyone's information but also the person who's opening the presentation.

Check out our FAQ page for applicants for more information.

Late applications will not be accepted.

The Tanner application is closed for 2008.
See you at the Tanner Conference on October 28, 2008.
