Hindsight is 2020: Back to Student Affairs Basics. Refocusing on our foundational purposes as student affairs educators.
The 2nd annual NASPA-SC Drive-In conference slated for May 15, 2020 at Clemson University has been postponed due to ongoing concerns about COVID-19. The planning committee will reconvene in June to discuss a new date for the drive-in conference. Following that meeting we will provide updates to registrants and all NASPA-SC members on plans for the conference in 2020.
