Fall
classes have started and most of us are getting used to our schedules for
another semester!
It’s
time now to think about the annual IMATYC conference.
This
year you are invited to the Ottumwa, IA campus of Indian Hills Community
College on October 12. We’ll open registration at 8:30 a.m. and serve
breakfast treats as we gather until the opening session at 9:00.
The
conference will feature the following:
1. Representatives of
the Iowa regents’ universities will update us on their expanded use of ALEKS as
a placement tool. Some of our colleagues met with them last April and
will share a report.
2. Two tracks of
sessions will be offered – one centering around technology and the other
concerning retention efforts.
3. Several vendors will
offer exhibits.
4. The Business meeting
will direct us to look at the IMATYC Constitution and to elect officers for
2014 and delegates to the 2012 AMATYC conference in November.
A
registration form is attached to this email. Once again, the registration
fee is very modest at $25 – a good buy, indeed! Please preregister
yourself and pass another copy of the form along to a colleague.
We
look forward to hosting you on Oct 12!

Mason, 2012 President IMATYC

Wright, 2012 Secretary IMATYC
