[Wamvan] FW: "For Her Own Good" Conference-- Registration Now Open!!!

[Natalie Hill]

what do you mean by scholarships?  I don't see that as an opportunity on the
event website.

Do you mean, ask them to waive the registration fee for two of us to go in
exchange for help with promotion?

I am *sort of* connected to one of the presenters, Colleen Varcoe.  She's a
professor at UBC and presented to my department last year (I introduced
her).  Not sure if that has any weight though - I doubt she could pull any
strings for us......
