NWSLC is Student Led
Every year NWSLC is directed by a student steering committee. The steering committee chooses the conference theme, helps to plan entertainment, choose speakers, t-shirt designs, workshops, and also will have roles during the conference such as speaker introductions and announcements. We love to have students on the committee from many difference campuses around but not limited to the Northwest region. Having a variety of students and campuses represented on the committee helps us to diversify and provide more workshops and information to all students who attend NWSLC. Steering committee members attend the conference for FREE! If you are interested in being a NWSLC 2008 steering committee member contact Michelle at

With the support of these good people we are able to continue to expand and diversify the conference while keeping registration low cost. Our organizational mission is focused on access to education so we make sure to keep conference cost to students as low as possible to ensure every student that wants to attend has the opportunity.
