DECEMBER 1 — Atlanta, Georgia — The Carter Presidential Center
Holiday Event, Collegiate Panel Discussion, & College Fair
This December NSHSS will hold its annual holiday event at The Carter Presidential Center in Atlanta, Georgia on December 1, 2007. The event will honor our scholars and distinguished educators, and include a panel discussion with college admissions officials from several top colleges and universities in the southeast. Topics covered will range from the various elements of the college application process, including timelines, common applications, early action and early decision, interviews, college visits, college selection, and much more. After the program, members will have the opportunity to meet the college representatives and ask questions in a college fair setting. Last year colleges in attendance were Emory, Yale, the University of Georgia, Spelman College, Morehouse College, SUNY Stony Brook, and Agnes Scott College.
Our previous member events have been held in a variety of locations, including the Harvard, UCLA, and Marquette campuses; The Senate Caucus Room, the House Caucus Room, and the Washington Press Club in Washington, D.C.; The Queen Mary in Long Beach, California; the USS Intrepid in New York City; the Southwest Airlines Headquarters in Dallas; and the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center, among others.
