2009 AACC Convention Discount for CSCC Members – Deadline February 20, 2009 (Deadline has passed)

The CSCC Annual Conference is in conjunction with the American Association of Community Colleges (AACC) convention, which is also in Phoenix, AZ from April 4-7. Although the regular base fee for the AACC convention is $597, all council members have an opportunity to attend for a discounted base rate of $450. Registrants receive access to all convention programs that are not ticketed, a complimentary beverage ticket to the opening reception, and access to the Academic Marketplace exhibit hall, and all events in the hall. Tickets for the Presidents Academy Hail & Farewell Luncheon, the Gala Reception/Dinner Honoring Outstanding Alumni, and the Brunch on Tuesday are additional.

In order to take advantage of this discount you must fill out the form and return it directly to me via mail with your check or credit card information (your credit card number goes on the form). Do NOT send the form and payment directly to the AACC - they will not process it unless it comes from me. I must receive your form and money no later than February 20, 2009. This is not a postmarked date - in order to submit all form on time I must have everything in my office by this deadline. Please send all materials to the following mailing address:
