[Sigmet-officers] Sigmet-officers Digest, Vol 30, Issue 7

[Stasa Milojevic]

  Dear all,

I don't have the information on the number of student participants we 
had last year. However, I believe it would be fairly easy to figure out 
that from the SIGMET budget report. I don't believe that there were more 
than 10 students.

We used last year's Elsevier's funds in three ways: to pay for the 
workshop (in full) for the student paper winners; to have a discount 
rate for all the participants (from $150 to $105); and to have an 
additional discount for student participants (the registration for them 
was $65). The way the discount for students worked was by reimbursement 
of $40 after the ASIST annual meeting.

I agree with Judit that student paper contest winners should be able to 
register for free to the workshop.

Best,
Stasa
