Your concern and care for the most vulnerable in our community means a great deal.\u00a0 With these health precautions in mind, we encourage you to stay masked for all indoor events, and to take advantage of the hotel\u2019s outdoor spaces for unmasked eating and drinking.\u00a0 All of our collective meals and events have been designed to facilitate outdoor gatherings and we have confidence that we will have wonderful opportunities for socializing and intellectual exchange.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Paperless Conference:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">For environmental reasons, we have opted for a paperless conference, although a printable pdf version of the program will be provided.\u00a0 We will have a few paper copies of the program available at all times at the registration desk, as well as posted information about the sessions.\u00a0 You can also see daily breakdowns of the schedule on the conference website:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">https:\/\/utopian-studies.org\/conference2022\/<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">AV Equipment:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Each of our conference rooms is fully equipped with Audio-visual equipment.\u00a0 Everyone should be able to use technology for presentations, including PowerPoint, streaming video, and sound.\u00a0 Please bring your own dongles and connectors if you want to use your own laptop.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Duties of panel chairs<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Panel chairs have three primary duties:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Introducing the panelists \u2013 it is up to you if you want to go beyond the information in the program. If you are feeling ambitious you could email your panel members prior to the conference.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Monitoring the time \u2013 no one should be speaking for more than 20 minutes. Be sure to tell the people on your panel how you plan to alert them to the time remaining (two minute warning, one minute warning). Remember that if someone goes too much over time then others are going to end up with less time.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Opening the discussion afterwards (and asking a question if things start quietly) \u2013 one way to avoid all questions going to the same person is to gather 2 or 3 questions and then have all the panelists respond. This only works if there are enough questions! It can be useful to ask a question that draws on commonalities across papers.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Covid Safety: Thank you to everyone who reached out to us about Covid and flu safety during this conference.
