Here is some attendee feedback from our 2012 Convention in Long Beach:
"Excellent show for networking."
Robert D.
Calgary
"One of the better conventions I've attended in the past 10 years with excellent talks and facilities."
Mark L. Denver
"Great meeting!!!"
Morgan S., Houston
"It was great! Very professional, and as a poster presenter, I was impressed with the layout, and outcome!"
Natalie H., California
"I really enjoyed myself at this conference. VERY well organized. Great diversity in the oral and poster presentations. I met a lot of great geoscientists from all over the world, and appreciated the arranged discounts for conference attendees for some of the local visitor hot spots (eg. the aquarium). As a university student, I got exactly what I was hoping for with this conference - 1) saw great talks that are very applicable to my work, 2) expanded my working knowledge, 3) got great feedback on my work through a poster presentation, and 4) met some new people."
