[comp.parallel] SOLICITATION FOR SC90 STUDENT VOLUNTEERS

brooking@mcnc.org (Jim Brooking) (09/25/90)

I am soliciting student help for the Supercomputing '90 conference in
NYC in November. Volunteers will have registration waived, and will get
a free (shared) room at the conference - a large consideration
considering NYC hotel costs. If you are still interested in volunteering
for SC90 please fill out the form below and return to me as requested.
Please note that transportation to NYC is NOT provided. Meals per se are
not included either, but the complementary conference registration
includes a banquet (Thu), a lunch (Thu), and a number of receptions.
Also, there will be hospitality suites run by various vendors, usually
featuring heavy hors d'oeuvres, daily.
