Q. Is there time between sessions to leave the campus?
A: The conference is scheduled pretty tightly. There are only a few times during that day you could leave the event and make it back without missing a planned session. Lunch and dinner will be provided and there will be snacks sold throughout the day. There should be no reason you should need to leave during the day.

Q. Can I arrive late or leave early from the conference?
A: Yes, we know young adults have busy schedules and we realize that in some instances there will be a need to come and go from the conference. There are no discounts for partial attendance.
