Pl sign up under the date of your 1st choice to present. We can not guarantee you'll be in that time slot but will try, as it depends on equipment available at the school. Be prepared to present on the 1st day of summer insitute. 3-4 sessions per day based on availability of labs (specify if you only need a projector and it's not hands on). There are 3 PC labs and I am trying to get Mac laptops. Note : bring your own if you need to download any software as we can't download onto Belmont computers.
