It started great: after the introductory speeches, we were encouraged to mingle for half an hour — playing to CFP's greatest strength: who attends.
And then my personal conference experience went downhill fast — not because CFP did anything wrong, but because I had to go to my hotel room to participate (via phone) in a key meeting of the UM Law faculty about the Dean Search. So I'm missing my favorite conference.
And four and half hours later it's still going….
Argh!
