© American Society for Engineering Education, 2007 Planning and Organizing a Regional Annual Conference-An Update

The organization of an ASEE-Section annual meeting is commonly the responsibility of the campus representatives. It is a challenge for the campus representatives to motivate and encourage other engineering faculty to participate, contribute, and share the responsibility for the planning, organization, and management of the annual conference. This paper is an update of the paper published in the proceeding of the 1995 ASEE annual conference.1 Some of the practices suggested in the original paper are now outdated. For example, due to the changes in technology, current practices in communication with the authors, announcements for Call for Papers, registration procedures, and publication medium are very different from those used in 1995. Practices described in the original paper which are still applicable are retained in this paper. The goal of this paper is to assist campus representatives who may be considering hosting their ASEE-Section annual conference
