More About the 2012 SNCA Conference:
This year’s program committee has been busy planning the 2012 SNCA conference. Please mark your calendars for March 28-30. The conference will be held on the campus of the University of North Carolina at Greensboro in Greensboro, North Carolina. The facilities on the campus we will be using include the historic Alumni House and the Elliott University Center. Furthermore, a block of rooms has been secured at the Marriott Hotel in downtown Greensboro, a great location for those of you who would like to explore the vibrant downtown Greensboro area.

Pre-conference workshops will be on Wednesday, March 28, followed by a social hour at Natty Greene’s Pub & Brewing Company in downtown Greensboro. Thursday includes morning tours of the UNCG campus and the University Archives and Special Collections, and an afternoon of sessions and a speaker during lunch. The reception and awards ceremony will take place Thursday evening at the Greensboro Historical Museum, and the exhibits will be open for self-guided tours. The majority of the sessions will be held on Friday, in addition to an opening speaker. Conference attendees are encouraged to take advantage of a Friday afternoon opportunity to tour the acclaimed International Civil Rights Center and Museum. A full program will be posted soon, and conference and hotel registration will be open February 1, 2012.
