This year we are going to expand upon last years’ lapel pin trading with adding in a “Most RADical” pin design competition. We hope that you will consider designing a new unique pin for this years’ student conference which will put your student section in the running. This will be not only a great way to showcase your student section as a whole but to strike up conversations and break the ice with other student sections. We hope you have fun thinking of ways to design your pins and don’t forget to brand them with your student section!

We are pleased to offer several tours and workshops as a part of the ANS 2012 Student Conference. Most of the tours and workshops have been finalized and details are available on the workshops and touring pages. Please make sure to check out the details before registering so you can maximize your time at the conference!
