We'll exceed your expectations!

CASE V District Conference

Dec. 10-12, 2006
Sheraton Chicago Hotel and Towers

We're challenged every day to go above and beyond our call of duty to surpass what our customers — students, alumni, donors, faculty and others — expect. Twenty-five CASE V colleagues have worked to do that for you, too, during this year's CASE V conference.

"Exceeding Expectations" is the theme of the 32nd annual conference. With the line up of speakers, sessions, exhibitors and more, the conference will do just that. Take a quick look at these year's line up and you'll see sessions answering many pressing questions covering all areas of advancement:

• integrated marketing
• international alumni groups
• advancing your advancement career
• managing Web content
• legal issues impacting higher ed development.
• understanding the power of diversity

These are just a few of the more than 100 sessions scheduled — not to mention the 80 roundtables. Writer Juan Williams, NPR senior correspondent and political analyst for Fox TV, will challenge you to think about higher education and advancement differently.

Cap these great learning opportunities with "Just a Taste of Chicago" — an unforgettable event with The Second City, The Blooze Brothers, great Chicago- style food and more. And, don't forget visiting downtown Chicago just before the holidays.

It's easy to see this year's conference will be exceeding your expectations in December.
