Gearing Up for Grace Hopper Next Week

For me, today is all about getting ready for the Grace Hopper Celebration of Women in Computing next week.  As usual, I'm involved with the conference in many different ways, from presenting a poster and talk to being a member of the Communities Committee.  Plus, I'm organizing a group of five other Carleton students who are attending for their first time!

I was thinking about all the different posts I've made about GHC over the years, and realized that I probably have a few that would be useful to attendees this year, too.  So here's a round-up of my most useful posts as we all gear up for next week:

• Getting Ready for a Conference
• Making the Most of Conference Travel
• Presentation and Communication Skills in Computer Science (check this out if you're giving a talk this year!)
• Dancing with Hundreds of Technical Women at Grace Hopper (aka one of the things I look forward to most!)
• When Having a Lot of Facebook Friends is Good (good ways to network with the attendees you meet)
• GHC09: I Am A Technical Woman! (a great video to get you in the mood)
