STUDENT VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

We need student volunteers to help out with the conference in both Chicago
and Amsterdam. This is a great opportunity to get free entry to
presentations by leading names in the field and to meet a large number of
professionals. Duties are light: mainly distributing handouts and handling
the microphone during Q&A.

If you are a full-time student and interested in volunteering, please send
email to one of these addresses with a few paragraphs about your
background and current studies:
