Colleagues,

Although many of us are currently in the depths of snowy winter and dark and heavy times, let our thoughts of gathering once again for the CCNY conference remind us of warmer, brighter days to come! We are excited to announce that the 44th Annual CCNY Conference will be held from June 3rd-5th and co-hosted by three campuses: Clarkson University, St. Lawrence University (SLU) and SUNY Potsdam. Please save the date and plan on attending. Our campuses are located in the beautiful North Country, a region just north of the Adirondack Park and 20 miles from the Canadian border. One of the treasures of the North Country is our beautiful natural environment! Consider arriving early or extending your stay after the conference for a vacation. This website is chock full of ideas of things to do in the area. During the conference, you’ll have the opportunity to explore each campus. Here are some links that might interest you:  Clarkson, SLU, SUNY Potsdam.

A perennial highlight of our gathering is listening and learning about the diverse and creative work of our colleagues. Please consider submitting a proposal – the deadline is March 27^th.  All program topics are welcome!

CCNY is a great space to present whether you’re a veteran or a novice to conference presentations. Your presentations will be joining two very special speakers this year for our Pre-Conference, Dr. Thomas Murphy and our Keynote, Mary Kelly Jones. We’re fortunate to have these folks coming to CCNY. More information about these speakers can be found here.

We would love to have you come and enjoy the opportunity we are offering with these presenters. Please submit program proposals and block off June 3-5! More details coming soon on accommodations, activities and local opportunities,  registration, and schedule.

Forever Grateful,
Kira, Diamante, and Josh
