Paper Presentation

Today was the final day of the 50/50 Caribbean Conference and during one of the afternoon sessions, Kathleen and I presented our paper on Gender Disparity in West Indies Higher Education.  We only had 20 minutes to present and thus had to really only hit the high points of our paper but it was well received and generated some interesting discussion.  Here are some photos from the presentation.  Our Paper is being published in a volume of the papers accepted at the conference later this year and the edition with all the papers will be put on file in the ICCI library.

At the end of the conference the sponsoring institutions and company sponsors created a time capsule to be opened in 50 years and I was one of the people on stage who got to put the locks on it.  Here is the capsule and the banner for the conference.  

The conference was a huge success and ICCI being a part of it was significant in terms of increasing the college's exposure and more importantly involving our students, faculty and staff in such a worthwhile academic endeavor.
