I'm glad it went well. I didn't see any notices about this since a Sept. 9 posting, which included this link: http://meetings.sigcis.org/conference-schedule.html and this email included no links at all. Is there any plan to post materials from the conference? Brian Berg On Wed, Sep 29, 2021 at 9:41 AM Laine Nooney <laine.nooney@gmail.com> wrote:
Dear SIGCIS Community,
Just sending a brief note of heartfelt thanks and appreciation to everyone who was able to drop in to the conference (and to those of you watching the videos!). Feedback on the event has been tremendously positive, and extended the sense that we are a thriving, generous international community.
And to pass on an important announcement: given the unprecedented success of this event--including the geographic and disciplinary range of individuals able to participate, as a fundraising vehicle, and the sincerely felt intellectual camaraderie--the SIGCIS Meetings team is making it our recommendation that our conference move to an online format every other year. We still believe in the fundamental value of meeting in person, but we also want to offer a routine way of convening that is financially and geographically accessible to the whole community. If you have thoughts on this, feel free to send them to me, or to our Exec Co-Chairs, Melanie Swalwell and Andy Russell.
Obviously this conference is more than the sum of its parts, but each of you who participated, shared generously, engaged sincerely, and held space for one another, are part of the equation that made this conference such a success. Thank you.
Warmly,
-Laine, Stephanie, Xiaochang, and Morgan
