Do I have to attend all of the events I select on the registration form? If I change my mind about a session, do I need to notify you?
When completing the registration form, you will be asked to select which sessions you are interested in attending to assist us in gauging guest counts. Once you are on campus, you are welcome to attend any part of the program regardless of whether you pre-registered for that session. If you decide you want to attend a different session after you have already registered, there is no need to notify us.
Will any of the conference sessions be recorded and/or livestreamed?
We will be recording selected sessions during the conference. These videos will be available several weeks after the conference on the She Roars website. At this time, we have plans to livestream a few events. More information will be forthcoming.
I would like to suggest an alumni speaker for the conference. Who do I contact?

My class, regional association or other group wants to host a gathering during the She Roars conference. How do I go about doing this?
The She Roars conference schedule is very full. While we appreciate the desire to host smaller gatherings during the conference, we are unable to support the planning of these events. You are welcome to organize smaller gatherings on your own, such as a pre-conference lunch on Thursday, October 4, meeting for drinks following the conclusion of programming on the evenings of Thursday, October 4 or Friday, October 5, or a post-conference breakfast on Sunday, October 7.

Where can I park during the conference?
Parking on campus is limited, especially on weekdays as school will be in session during this event. We encourage you to take advantage of mass transit and hotel shuttles, and carpool whenever possible. Specific campus parking locations available for the conference will be posted in the resources section of the She Roars website in mid-September.
How will dietary restrictions be handled during the event?
On the first page of the registration form, you will be asked to share any dietary restrictions you have. This information will be shared with our caterers in advance of the event, and they will be prepared to address all restrictions. At the sit-down meals, please review the printed menu at your table, and share your restriction with your server if a special meal is needed. At buffet-style or grab-and-go events, stationary items will be labeled and servers will be able to answer questions about the food available.

Conference attendees can purchase either a silk or modal She Roars scarf, with a design that evokes the 2011 pattern but is updated for the 2018 conference. Alumni attending the conference can pre-order here. Pre-ordered scarves will be available for pick up at Maclean House during the conference. Quantities are limited; any scarves not sold during the pre-order period will be available for on-site purchase during the conference. The 2011 She Roars scarf was a limited edition created for that conference and is no longer available for purchase.
