Are you getting excited, College of Fine Arts students? We sure are! 
For those of you who have never attended a conference, here are some tips to take full advantage of the upcoming ArtsForce conference, this Friday and Saturday!
1. BE PREPARED!
Conferences oftentimes have various activities and some that happen simultaneously. We recommend you get familiar with the conference schedule and figure out what parts of the pre-conference you want to attend, ensuring you get the most out of ArtsForce.
2.BE BRAVE!
Conferences are a time to be a sponge and make connections. Don’t be afraid of what you don’t know; just prepare to open up and learn! Ask questions and introduce yourself to others. You might be surprised at how much more profound this can make your experience.
3.This is YOUR conference!
Thie conference keynote address by Steven J. Tepper, PhD is open to the public, but it’s meant specifically for you. Please know that ArtsForce attendees get the best seating in the house that night, so look for conference staff to point you in the right direction.
4.TAKE NOTES!
You may ned up immediately using the skills and information you learn at ArtsForce, and you may not. So, plan to take good notes so you can reference what you learned for when you need it most.
For those of you who have not registered yet, now is definitely the time. Registration closes tonight!
