The First Symposium

April 17, 2004
UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA
PRESENTATION GUIDELINES

Rooms
All A sessions will be held in room 345 and all B sessions will be held in room 330 of the academic wing of the University Museum.

Handouts
If you are planning to distribute handouts, we recommend that you prepare 20 to 30. There are unfortunately no copying facilities available at the symposium, so we ask that you prepare these in advance.

Technical Facilities
Both rooms will have identical technical facilities including an overhead projector, projection screen, computer with projector, and internet connection. Below are the specifics on the computer facilities:

Operating System: Windows 2000
Internet Access: Yes
Data Storage Devices: Zip drive (PC) and CD-Drive (use CD-R or closed CD-RW)
There is no floppy drive.
Remote: Both computers have a radio mouse so that you need not stand behind the computer to present.

For those of you planning to use the computer to present, we recommend that you e-mail yourself a backup version of your material in the off chance that the computer has difficulty reading your Zip disks and CDs.

Though we recommend against bringing your own laptop to run your presenataion, if you need to do so, please let us know in advance so that we can make arrangements. Our technical expertise is limited, so you must be prepared to configure your computer to the outport and to modify your display settings on your own. You will also be unable to access the internet.
