Please note that although we are co-located with the AASHE conference
at the Raleigh Convention Center, these are separate events requiring
separate registration. AASHE and SNC are co-hosting the Sustainable
Solutions Expo and the Peter Senge keynote address. Your registration
for *either* conference includes access to both the Expo and Senge
keynote.

There are very affordable student rates available.
