2008 Spring Meeting Student Information
The SDAFS Student Affairs Committee has reserved a block of rooms for free student lodging during the Spring meeting at the Oglebay Resort and Conference Center in Wheeling, West Virginia. Free student lodging will be for two nights; February 29 and March 1, 2008. Each room will be shared by four students of the same gender. Application deadline is 15 February 2008.
The SDAFS Spring meeting provides an excellent opportunity for students to develop their professional skills.
