This Way to Registration

Today (Friday, October 19) is the last day of early registration for CSU, Chico's This Way to Sustainability III Conference. A lot of sessions are already full (as I found out when I registered on Wednesday), however there remains a lot to choose from. Unlike last year's free conference, this year there is a $25 price tag for non-students, which is still a deal in my book, considering the number and variety of presenters.
Even if I don't get into the sessions that I want, simply being around for the side conversations makes it worth my time.
After today, I am told the cost will go up to $40, and you will likely be put on a waiting list to enroll in the conference.
Ironically, one thing that I learned from last year's conference is to bring my own plate, fork, napkin, and mug. I saw a lot of disposable dishware floating around the BMU last year, so this year I am going prepared, just in case.
