This is an exciting year for participants at the WEAC Summer Conference. The new surroundings at the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse campus reflect the changing environment of education. New attitudes. New perspectives. A new enthusiasm. The 1998 Summer Conference participants will examine many of the changes they face in education today – from incorporating computers into the classroom to implementing new collective bargaining strategies to overcoming the impact of revenue controls. It all begins at 5:30 tonight with the General Session in the tent outside of Drake Hall.
Leading off the 1998 Summer Conference is this 10-piece band, which plays a mix of rock and soul. You’ll enjoy dancing or listening to these local musicians who are well-known for their Oktoberfest performances.
The Daily News will be published Sunday through Thursday. Got a story idea? You may leave items at the WEAC office in 342 Cartwright Center, or track down Editor Bill Hurley.
