Social Program

A number of night social events have been planned for throughout the Pre-Conferece Administrators' Program as well as the Conference.

FRIDAY: OPENING DINNER AT ST ANDREW’S

The program begins with a dinner St Andrew’s College, University of Sydney. This will include a welcome from the Association, from Principal of St Andrew’s College, Mr Wayne Erickson and a key-note speaker (to be advised).

SATURDAY: NIGHT OUT IN SYDNEY

Centred smack bang in the middle of Sydney, we encourage delegates to check out the city! Circular Quay is just down the road, but for those who want something more close to home, there are some great Thai restaurants only metres away.

SUNDAY: ST ANDREW’S FORMAL DINNER

NAAUC ’09 is kicking the week off with a traditional formal St Andrew’s Highlander style dinner in the St Andrew’s Dining Hall. This is not only a time to officially welcome delegates and speakers to the NAAUC 2009 Conference, but a time where our Scottish Heritage is celebrated with bagpipes, a haggis ceremony and Tartan stretching as far as the eye can see. This traditional four course Andrew’s formal celebration gives college delegates a chance to expose their hidden ‘William Wallace’, and wear just a snippet of tartan, or a kilt - if they’re game!

MONDAY: MERCH EXCHANGE

The NAAUC ’09 ‘Merch Exchange’ will be a night where life long friendships will be forged - not to mention the fact that it’s an excellent icebreaker. Held in the newly renovated Highlander Bar, we ask all attending this action packed party to come dressed in as much of you own college merchandise as you can possibly muster, because by the end of night you’ll be walking away in a rainbow of college colours. For those not in the mood for such festivities, feel free to spend the evening soaking up the sights of Sydney.
