Registration Brochure

Greetings Colleagues,

On behalf of the 2017 Conference Planning Committee, I’d like to invite you to the NAGAP 30th Annual Conference in Salt Lake City, Utah! The Conference Planning Committee has been working tirelessly to ensure that the 30th Annual Conference will be a special event. This year’s conference theme – “Measuring Success. Explore. Elevate. Engage.” – will come to life as we converge on the opulent Grand America Hotel set in the breathtaking mountain backdrop of Salt Lake City. The Grand America Hotel is the perfect setting for a kickoff celebration for NAGAP’s 30th anniversary year. Salt Lake City is known as a year-round destination for outdoor enthusiasts as visitors are surrounded by some of the country’s most beautiful parks and ski slopes. In addition to the natural wonders, Salt Lake City also offers a lively nightlife with over 150 restaurants, brewpubs and theaters that are easy to visit using the city’s light rail system located just across the street from the conference hotel. Visitors may ride the light rail free of charge to several locations, including many of the downtown hotspots.

Make your travel plans accordingly and join us on Wednesday, April 19th for our Welcome Reception. For first-time attendees, we encour-age you to attend the First-Timer’s Session Wednesday afternoon. You will have the opportunity to learn about making the most out of your conference experience, network with other first-time attendees and meet NAGAP board members. Wednesday evening we formally kick off the conference with the Welcome Reception in the Exhibit Hall. We will celebrate our 30th anniversary with our colleagues and chat with exhibitors while enjoying a delicious spread of food and beverages. Also, the Professional Development Committee has planned a Pre-Conference Institute (PCI), which is a half-day program on Wednesday focusing intensely on the topic of strategic enrollment planning.

The conference’s educational offerings are designed to meet the needs of everyone from a new graduate enrollment management pro-fessional to an experienced veteran. Learn new approaches and strategies in a variety of topics related to our field, including: recruitment and marketing; financing education; admissions operations; graduate student services; alumni relations and engagement; enrollment modeling and strategic planning; as well as career, staff and personal development. Throughout the conference there will be rich pro-gramming as we remain committed to making the educational offerings at the Annual Conference current and relevant so they meet the membership’s diverse needs and interests. Additionally, the Exhibit Hall will feature more than 50 exhibitors, showcasing their brands, products and services under one roof; these exhibitors are ready and eager to discuss partnership opportunities.

This year’s conference will highlight impressive plenary speakers, and we are very fortunate to have them join us. On Thursday, Dr. David H. Kalsbeek, Senior Vice President for Enrollment Management and Marketing at DePaul University, will be our opening keynote speaker. Dr. Kalsbeek is regarded as a thought leader in enrollment management and will be discussing “The Measures, Treasures and Pleasures of GEM”. New this year, we will have two plenary sessions on Friday. In the morning we will hear from Dr. Damon A. Williams, Senior Vice President of Program, Training and Youth Development Services at the Boys and Girls Club of America. Dr. Williams is a leading authority on educational achievement, inclusive excellence and chief diversity officers. On Friday afternoon, Dr. Allison Friederichs, Associate Dean for Academic Affairs and Assistant Professor at the College of Professional and Continuing Studies – University College, University of Denver, will discuss “How the Adult Brain Learns: Implications for More Impactful Communication”. On Saturday, keynote speaker, Scott Jaschik, Editor and Founder of Inside Higher Ed, will close our conference with an overview of issues that graduate enrollment management leaders face, and will be facing, leaving attendees in a better position to understand the issues and the way our programs are perceived.

Thursday evening’s Off-Site Event will be a special anniversary celebration at The Leonardo Museum. Located a few blocks from The Grand America Hotel, the event will feature food and drinks, interactive activities, exhibits, live music and entertainment from prominent speaker Jason Hewlett. This is sure to be an extraordinary event appropriate for a 30th anniversary celebration. You do not want to miss it!

We hope that this conference is a chance to step back, connect with colleagues and remind ourselves why we do this important work. From graduate admissions professionals to educational administrators, enrollment management decision-makers, student affairs professionals and beyond, this conference is designed to meet your needs. All are encouraged to attend! Conference attendees walk away from the annual conference reenergized and ready to return to their offices with valuable ideas and suggestions.

On behalf of the Conference Planning Committee, I invite you to join us at the annual conference where we can Explore, Elevate and Engage. See you in Salt Lake City!

Pre-Conference InstituteAdditional registration required.

Wednesday, April 19, 2017 9:00 a.m. – 1:30 p.m.

Strategic Enrollment Planning in the Graduate ContextLew Sanborne, PhD, Vice President, Consulting Services, Ruffalo Noel Levitz

As the pace of change in higher education accelerates, it is incumbent upon institutions to plan strategically. Most colleges and universities are enrollment and tuition dependent, so strategic enrollment planning (SEP) should be at the center of most institutional planning efforts. This interac-tive workshop will allow participants to work through key steps of the pro-cess as if they were leading a graduate SEP project on their own campus: building the necessary organizational structures; conducting effective environmental scanning; understanding the dynamics in the marketplace and the interaction of competition, demand and institutional authenticity; developing criteria for new program evaluation (which can be applied to current programs); prioritizing strategic initiatives; and preparing for embedding SEP principles into annual planning processes. Participants will leave the workshop, not only with a plan to plan, but also with many elements of the plan already sketched out.

Apply for a Pre-Conference Institute FellowshipNAGAP encourages its members to apply for a Pre-Conference Institute Fellowship, which is a great way to stretch professional development dollars during a time of increasing financial challenges. Two fellowships are available for NAGAP members. Each fellowship covers the Pre-Conference Institute registration fee.

Click here to apply for a fellowship. For more information please email Kathryn Kendall, Sr. Assistant Dean for Enrollment and Online Programs, University at Buffalo, School of Social Work, at kkendall@buffalo.edu. Please include “NAGAP Fellowship” in the subject line.

The essay should address how you think the Pre-Conference Institute will assist you in your professional development and how you believe your participation will help you to use national datasets and trends in gradu-ate applications, enrollment and degrees to make informed decisions to achieve enrollment goals.

Fellowship applications must be submitted by Friday, March 3, 2017. Fellowship applicants will be notified of the results prior to the Annual Conference registration deadline.

For more information and updates, or to register to attend the Institute, visit the NAGAP website: www.nagap.org.

THURSDAY, APRIL 20, 20179:30 a.m. – 10:30 a.m.

Opening Keynote Address: The Measures, Treasures & Pleasures of GEM

David H. Kalsbeek, PhD, Senior Vice President for Enrollment Management and Marketing, DePaul University

The defining features of strategic enrollment management (SEM) include integration, intentionality, innovation and information. Universities have learned the benefits of these four qualities as they pursue under-graduate enrollment goals: a more pur-

poseful pursuit of enrollment goals, organizational structures that align key functions, continuous creativity in approaches and tactics and data-driven strategy. As SEM has evolved and been embraced in graduate and professional programs, those same benefits are being extended to graduate enrollment management (GEM).

The purpose of the session is to explore the distinct differences, attributes and qualities of GEM, to consider the practices, pro-cesses and perspectives that make EM at the graduate level distinctly different than at the undergraduate level. There are differences that give GEM its distinct flavor, its special attrac-tion, its idiosyncratic challenges and rewards. These are the specific factors that make how we measure success in GEM work uniquely challenging and are the very factors that we treasure and in which we find our professional pleasure.

In this keynote session, Dr. Kalsbeek will enumerate some of those factors as we commence this national conference dedi-cated to ensuring enrollment success in our institutions’ grad-uate programs.

About the Presenter:

Dr. David H. Kalsbeek is senior vice president for Enrollment Management and Marketing at DePaul, where he leads the marketing and enrollment development strategies for the nation's largest Catholic university. His responsibilities encom-pass enrollment planning, undergraduate admission, grad-uate enrollment and marketing services, enrollment and

student systems, financial aid, student records and registra-tion, career center and employer relations, university intern-ships and student employment, TRIO programs, institutional and market research, student retention, brand and marketing communications.

During his tenure at DePaul, he has been the architect of successful enrollment and marketing strategies driving three university strategic plans. His division’s strategies have been marked by innovation, integrated approaches and data-driven change. The outcomes have included growth in enrollment and market share, along with record levels of student diver-sity, record retention and completion rates and annual growth in net tuition revenue at one of the most tuition-dependent of America’s large universities.

Kalsbeek is a national leader in enrollment management in higher education and has been considered one of the thought leaders of the field throughout its evolution in higher educa-tion. He has authored chapters in nine texts on enrollment management and higher education administration, includ-ing being editor of the recently published book “Reframing Retention for Institutional Success”. He has published over 20 professional articles and is a frequent speaker at national con-ferences, giving over 120 presentations and keynote addresses at national conferences sponsored by organizations such as AACRAO, CASE, NACUBO, SCUP, UPCEA, NASPA, ACT, AAHE, AIR, NASFAA, AMA and the College Board. He has been a consultant to dozens of colleges, universities and asso-ciations on issues related to strategic enrollment management, student retention and marketing. He has served on the faculty of University of Pennsylvania’s Executive Doctoral program in Higher Education and at the University of Southern California’s certificate program in Enrollment Management Leadership. He has served on the editorial boards of the Journal of College Student Retention and the College and University journal.

Prior to joining DePaul in 1997, Kalsbeek served as the senior enrollment management administrator at Xavier University in Cincinnati, Ohio, from 1993-97, and prior to that, he held sev-eral positions, including associate vice president for enrollment management, at Saint Louis University in St. Louis, Missouri, from 1982 to 1993.

He received a PhD in public policy studies from Saint Louis University in 1992.

NAGAP Resource Center

NAGAP will once again offer an area exclusively for networking. The time between sessions will be approximately 15 minutes to facilitate communication.

We are asking each conference attendee to bring a supply (approximately 25) of the best promotional materials their respective schools use to share with other attendees. These materials will be available in the resource center. If you are considering additional resources, this is the place to look for extra materials you want to take home with you. This area will also feature a job and message board for posting open positions at your institution, looking for jobs or to leave mes-sages for colleagues.

Fisher House Salt Lake CityThe Fisher House provides a place for families to stay, free of charge, while their loved one is receiving medical treatment. Because veterans often travel long distances in order to receive medical care at the Salt Lake VA, the Fisher House fulfills a critical need in a vast geographical area that is highly rural. Veterans and their families can enjoy a spectacular view of the Wasatch Mountains while they are in a comfortable environment that offers hope, community and healing.

To DonateVisit the Fisher House donation site. Add NAGAP as the name of your “tribute” in order for your donation to be counted toward the amount that NAGAP will match (up to $500). NAGAP will also collect donations at the conference.

Enhanced Education SessionsIn an effort to meet individual learning styles and pro-vide enhanced networking opportunities, NAGAP is again offering various format options for educational sessions at the 30th Annual Conference. Please view the session topics on pages 8-11 for a list of the sessions we expect to offer. Each session indicates the category topic and presentation format.

Engage with Panelists. Panels consist of three to four participants and a moderator. These professionals, from across the country and around the world, discuss the topic at hand and bring perspectives informed by their expertise and related experience.

Discover and learn from Presentations. These are edu-cational sessions in which the presenter(s) shares infor-mation with a theater-style audience. Presenters integrate media (e.g., PowerPoint, video clips and links to websites) and engage the audience throughout the course of the ses-sion. Presentations are structured to allow time for audi-ence participation, take-home messages and questions and answers.

Discuss current, relevant, cutting-edge information and best practices in a Rapid Fire Session. Each discussion leader is given just 10 minutes to present best practices. Four to five discussion leaders will present hot topics in graduate enrollment management. Time will be sched-uled for Q and A so that session participants can interact with presenters. A facilitator will monitor time and guide the Q and A.

Participate in a Special Interest Forum. The Special Interest Forum (SIF), led by a facilitator, is a roundtable discussion during which attendees may discuss a specific topic of interest in a small group setting. This format max-imizes the opportunity for open dialogue among confer-ence attendees, as participants share their experiences and thoughts.

Learn what various companies are doing and can offer the field of graduate enrollment management in a Vendor Presentation. Participants receive in-depth details on specific products or services that they may be considering using in their daily work. Similar in structure to a presen-tation, vendors share how a product or service works and how it may address specific needs.

Things to Do in Salt Lake CityThere is so much to see and do in Salt Lake City! For more information, visit www.visitsaltlake.com/nagap2017. Another good resource is the hotel concierge desk. Just tell them what you want to do, and they can help you locate it!

Family Search Center – Begin a journey to discover who you are. All of us have a story, and our stories stretch back for generations. Does your family history have witchcraft, kings, horse thieves, honorable men, or a combination of them all? You won't have to travel all over the world to trace your roots. You can start your journey of discovery in Salt Lake: the Genealogy Capitol of the World. Friendly (and free) staff members can help you get started on over 100 individual computer stations with access to family history resources.

Temple Square – You’ll be immersed in 35 acres of enchantment in the heart of Salt Lake City. Whether it’s the rich history, the gorgeous gardens and architecture, or the vivid art and culture that pulls you in, you’ll surely have an unforgettable experience. Temple Square is the home of Salt Lake Temple, the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, the Family Search Center and Beehive House, among other attractions.

• Salt Lake Temple – Visit the beautiful grounds of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and learn about the construction and meaning of this incredible building.

• Attend a free performance of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, Temple Square's own volunteer choir that has performed all over the world. The Choir practices on Thursday evenings at 7:30 p.m. and performs on Sundays at 9:30 a.m. in the Tabernacle (doors open at 8:15 a.m.).

• Tour the Beehive House, the historic home of Brigham Young, learn the meaning behind its name, and take a look into what life was like for the early pioneers.

• As mentioned above, stop by the Family Search Center to learn more about family history and get started on finding your ancestors. Guides help you every step of the way.

Olympic Oval - In 2002, Salt Lake City hosted the Olympic Winter Games. The Olympic spirit lives on at attractions and facilities where you can skate on Olympic Ice, take a luge ride or watch future Olympic athletes in training. Known for the 'Fastest Ice on Earth', Utah Olympic Oval is home to over 100 world records in speed skating. Built in 2001, this

amazing venue has transformed from a high-performance competition venue to a community recreational resource for Utah residents from all over Salt Lake Valley. Today, the Olympic Oval continues to host world-class speed skating races annually and provides learn-to programs for aspiring figure skaters, speed skaters, hockey players and more. Utah Olympic Park offers year-round adventure. From learning about the Park's unique Olympic heritage on a guided tour to taking a ride of a lifetime on the Comet Bobsled Ride, Olympic Park offers activities for all ages and abilities. Zip, climb, slide, hike and explore Olympic history!

Out & About in SLC – There are several great local places in Salt Lake City to grab a bite or a drink after the Educational Sessions. You will find all types of cuisine, from American to Moroccan, Asian to Italian and everything in between!

• The conference planning committee highly recommends Valter’s Osteria. The restaurant offers amazing Italian dishes and to-die-for desserts!

• East Liberty Tap House offers fresh twists on “bar food” staples using local ingredients.

• Squatters Pub Brewery has been creating award-win-ning cuisine and beer since 1989. Featuring daily spe-cials and traditional pub favorites, such as bacon topped meatloaf and a delicious array of burgers, and of course award-winning craft beer, Squatters is Salt Lake's pre-mier brew pub.

• Right around the corner from Squatters is Red Rock Brewing Company, 2009 winner of ‘Large Brewery of the Year’ at the Great American Beer Festival. This popular beer stop boasts delicious pizza, salads and brewpub atmosphere.

• If you are looking for a great local Italian restaurant with great atmosphere and a good wine list visit Cannella’s Restaurant Lounge, just a short walk from the hotel.

• Eva – Succulent small plates, artfully crafted wood-oven pizzas and an extensive wine list feature at this "vibey" Downtown Mediterranean restaurant.

• Stop by The Bayou for authentic Cajun food and live jazz.

Shopping – Salt Lake City and shopping have gone hand-in-hand for well over a century. The first department store in the United States opened for business in Salt Lake City in

14

1868. Today the Salt Lake Valley offers plenty of possibilities for terrific shopping excursions. City Creek Center is located close to the Grand America Hotel. This unique shopping envi-ronment features a fully-retractable glass roof, hourly foun-tain shows, waterfalls and a sparkling creek that runs through the entire project. Shops include Macy’s, Nordstrom, Athleta, Clarks, H & M, Sephora, Gap and many more.

The Sugar House district is all about the "Buy Local” move-ment, so make sure to check out the abundance of cool shops whose shop owners will give fashion advice or dish on the his-tory of the neighborhood. Unhinged Boutique offers one-of-a-kind goods from local artists, as well as vintage found items in an eclectic setting. You can shop for second-hand clothes and costumes at Pib's Exchange or head to Central Book Exchange to peruse stacks of paperbacks. And while you’re digging through cool consumables and media, slide around the corner to Raunch Records to restock your supply of music of the alter-native and punk persuasion. Local Colors of Utah Art Gallery features Utah artists’ fine and folk art.

ROAD TRIPS!

Great Salt Lake – As the largest natural lake west of the Mississippi River and the largest salt water lake in the western hemisphere, the Great Salt Lake is perhaps the best known geologic feature in the area. The city even takes its name from the lake – originally it was Great Salt Lake City, but the "Great" was dropped from the name in 1868. The lake has a rich his-tory, interesting features, plays an important role in the ecosys-tem and provides abundant recreational opportunities.

With over 60 national and state parks only a few hours away, Salt Lake City is the perfect place to begin or unwind from your adventures in the great, wild West. Utah is truly nature's playground, with miles upon miles of diverse and spec-tacular terrain, including deep forests and craggy peaks, vast deserts and lunar salt flats, red-rock towers and arches, secret slot canyons and winding rivers. Opportunities for hiking, bik-ing, boating, fishing, camping, climbing, outdoor photography and general exploring are practically endless. Wasatch-Cache National Forest and Timpanogos Cave National Monument are both within an hour’s drive of Salt Lake City. Arches, Bryce Canyon and Canyonlands National Parks (among several oth-ers) are all approximately four hours away, but well worth the trip!
