Well today CMESG 2011 at Memorial begins! Please make your way to the Inco Innovation Centre (a few weeks ago this building was renamed the Bruneau Centre) to pick up your registration package and to make payment if you have not done so. You will receive your receipt, your name tag, your login and password for wireless access (if you have not already received it from the residence), some refreshment tickets for tonight's reception, some goodies from Memorial and the Faculty of Education, and a schedule that includes the room numbers for the sessions. There will be some nourishment offered to you at this time (fruit, granola bars... things you can take with you) and the opening session will begin at 5:00 pm in the lecture hall (now called Innovation Hall) of the Inco Centre followed by the opening plenary by Chris Palmer at 6:00 pm. Our reception will follow.
Please spend some time considering the offerings of the six working groups, because during tonight's opening session we will need to get a sense of the size of each group so as to assign an appropriate sized room. This would not be necessary if all our rooms were the same size but we have some larger rooms and some smaller rooms and we would like to match our groups as best we can. You will certainly be able to change your mind between tonight and tomorrow morning but it would be helpful for us to have a rough idea.
Here is the conference program online.
See you soon!
