[COPLAC-IR] Fwd: Message for COPLAC membership

[William Spellman]

Dear COPLAC Colleagues:

I thought I would share this information about the Annual HEDS Conference.
One does not have to be a member of HEDS to attend the conference.

Sincerely,

Bill

 Hi Bill,



I hope you are doing well. We have a preliminary schedule for the upcoming
HEDS Consortium Annual Conference with a list of presenters and topics
available on our website, and I was wondering if you might want to share
this information with the COPLAC membership. Please see message below.



Thank you!



Libby



Subject Line: HEDS Annual Conference - June 13-17, Portland, Oregon



It’s not too late to register for the 31st Annual Conference of the Higher
Education Data Sharing Consortium (HEDS) at the Embassy Suites in downtown
Portland, Oregon on June 13-17, 2015. The annual conference brings together
people in an informal setting to present on and discuss topics related to
assessment, institutional research, and institutional effectiveness. We
welcome participants from all colleges and universities – *you do not have
to be from a HEDS institution to attend*.



*Keynote speakers and topics this year:*

   - *William C. Hiss*, principal investigator for "Defining Promise:
   Optional Standardized Testing Policies in American College and University
   Admissions"
   - *Gina Johnson* (University of Denver) on the future of institutional
   research
   - *Jon McGee* (College of Saint Benedict and Saint John's
University), *Frank
   A. Boyd, Jr.* (Illinois Wesleyan University), and *Rick Detweiler*
   (Great Lakes College Association) on the marketplace for higher education
   - *Josipa Roksa* (University of Virginia) on postcollege outcomes



*Our annual conferences are uniquely designed to facilitate good
conversations and networking opportunities: *

   - We hold few concurrent sessions so that everyone can attend sessions
   together.
   - Lunch is included in the registration fee to allow conversations to
   continue between sessions
   - Optional group dinners and outings give you time after sessions to
   connect with your colleagues.



We hope to see you there. Please feel free to share this information with
your colleagues.
