How Many Sessions Can Faculty or Staff Chair?

Several faculty have asked: how many sessions can I request? One? One of each type? Or?

Short answer: you can chair as many sessions as you’d like. However, this could be exhausting and hard to schedule.

Longer answer: several very engaged faculty and staff chairs have, in the past, used this approach. Chair a poster session and Chair an open or sponsored session. If you and your program are really coordinated you could probably do three, but that would be tiring.

In the end, though, the decision is yours.

Remember to request your session soon!
