2009 VACURH Conference
"All The Places We'll Go!"
The University Of Virginia's College at Wise
The executive board would like to thank the students and staff at UVA Wise for hosting the 2009 VACURH Conference. The conference was engaging, fun and educational and all the events occurred as scheduled despite the lack of preparation time. UVA Wise, in particular Angie Lemke, Laruen Cary, Jekeyma Robinson and James Tiffany, decided in the fall of 2008, when no other school would step up, to host the 2009 VACURH Conference. Thank you again for all of your time spent planning and facilitating this year's conference.
