For those of you who’ve known me for a while, you likely already know that the annual ACM SIGUCCS (Special Interest Group for University and College Computing Services) conference is one of the highlights of my year – and this year’s conference was no different. I always love having the opportunity to share my experiences with others who work in higher ed IT and learn from their experiences as well. I’ve been attending and presenting at the annual SIGUCCS conference since 2017, as well as volunteering to help out on the annual conference planning committee and with the conference in general. I love SIGUCCS as an organization, and I especially enjoy working with other volunteers and connecting with people at the conference.
This year was extra special for me, though, as I was inducted into the SIGUCCS Hall of Fame at this year’s conference!
It’s an honor that came as somewhat of a surprise to me – I’m always happy to volunteer for things, and as I mentioned, I really enjoy being a part of SIGUCCS, but I thought it might be a few more years before I was considered for the Hall of Fame. Nevertheless, I’m excited to be a member of the SIGUCCS Hall of Fame!
This year’s conference was full of great presentations that filled me with all sorts of ideas to incorporate into my work, and in the coming days and weeks I’ll share my notes on the presentations here on the blog. They’ll all be collected under the tag SIGUCCS 2024, so keep an eye out for those posts! (Hopefully I can get everything written up and posted before the next conference I’m attending, IU’s Statewide IT Conference on April 23rd and 24th!)
