Information Regarding 2010 AWP/SPW Hospitality Suite at the APA Convention

The purpose of the AWP/SPW Suite The AWP/SPW suite serves as a place to hold meetings, network, share, and as a place for suite volunteers from both organizations to stay at a reduced rate. The suite set up consists of a seating area for meetings and discussions, an area for the book exhibit, and sleeping quarters. Division 35 and AWP currently share the financial support of the suite equally and each has access to half of the target of 14 programming hours. Because it is meant to be a "hospitality suite," the two organizations decided that the remainder of the hours should be designated as "open time" for members to talk, network, relax, and get to know people in the organization. They also decided that the events held in the suite should be primarily conversation hours and meetings of task forces and organizations rather than formal presentations. These are all open sessions-professionals and students are welcome to attend.
