KDD registration waiving question #67

Open irajmoradi opened 1 year ago

irajmoradi commented 1 year ago

Hello,

I managed to get the award for KDD registration, but as part of getting it since I can only make it for 2 days I have to work 5 hours each day, meaning the majority of the conference for those two days is assisting the organizers. Would it be possible to just have CMC fund registration so I could utilize more of my time there to networking and looking at cool projects.

Sincerely, Iraj Moradi

I recommend you and @alysawyer both do the volunteer option. The volunteering is specifically set up to help students interact with the conference attendees in a meaningful way. One of the main jobs, for example, is to support the film crew for the presentations. This means that you'd be giving the speakers their mic and helping them test run their presentations, so you'll both be present for their presentations and have 1-1 time that you could ask any followup questions you'd like to.

The only job that's not super helpful this way is registering people at the check-in of the conference. You'll get to pick which jobs you do, so just don't choose that one.
