Thinking of going to HERDSA 2017?  Why not bring a student?

At HERDSA we understand students to be potential partners.  Why not develop this further in your own work by partnering with a student you see has great potential?  At the conference this year we have very low student rates in order to promote student participation in higher education.

We hope you will take this extraordinary opportunity to network with colleagues and forge new plans for a future where students as partners is a reality.
