Sigma Tau Delta Centennial Convention: Alumni Opportunity

Alumni Professional Development

Completion Deadline: Monday, September 25, 2023

Alumni members of Sigma Tau Delta planning to attend the 2024 “In Flux” Centennial Convention in St. Louis, MO, are welcome to submit a Professional Development Presentation. Alumni who are selected to present will earn a $300 honorarium to help defray their convention expenses. Professional Development Panels will be held at 9:30-10:45 a.m., Thursday, April 4, 2024, and will have two to four alumni presenters in panels arranged topically; for example, alumni in arts management might be on the same panel together. No alumni presenter will be expected to present a panel entirely on their own. The Society is planning to offer ten honoraria. A panel of alumni and Chapter Advisors will select the accepted proposals based on these evaluation criteria.
