39th Annual LAND Conference
February 21-23, 2024
Online
Theme: Undeterred

Registration for the 2024 LAND Conference – Registration will be available in October, 2023.

What do you mean Undeterred? We purposely keep the conference theme broad to invite a range of interpretations across Liberal Arts disciplines. We were motivated to select each year’s theme by simply looking at what’s going on in the world around us, and our own experiences with our students as they pursue their dreams against so many odds and awkward pauses of all kinds. All of this, especially when considered in the context of current cultural forces and the social-political climate, can fit within the theme. Find out what it meant to our presenters in their work with the Liberal Arts!

2024 LAND Conference Program

The LAND Conference opens on Wednesday evening with a Social Hour and Student Film Presentation, then goes on Thursday and Friday to include Lightning Talks, the LAND Institutional Excellence Award, Creative Expressions Night*, a Creative Writing Workshop, a variety of panel discussions on current issues in higher education and the liberal arts, Student Scholars Lightning Talks, Student Scholars Poster Sessions, Student Awards Presentations, and the ever-amazing Student Art Exhibit! Expect to be enlightened, entertained, and engaged with every LAND conference!

*Creative Expressions

Hosted by Clark Iverson (The Man with the Top Hat), Creative Expressions is held on the Thursday evening of the conference.
