Vice President’s Column: MAC Meetings and Symposia Update

---

Abstract

This is a true story (and bear with me as I know it’s July when you read this, but it’s April as I write). Last week, my brain registered some signs of spring—a crocus, a robin, desperate undergrads looking for collections for their pending seminar papers—and they made me think about heading to MAC. In a fraction of a moment, I felt the anticipation of travel, seeing friends, and professional learning. Then, just as quickly, I came to and realized all of that had already happened. Unlike springtime in Wisconsin, MAC came early this year. And we MACers adjusted just fine: we broke records in attendance and, no surprise, it was a fantastic meeting. On behalf of outgoing Vice President Erik Moore and all of MAC leadership, I want to thank everyone in the Local Arrangements, Program, and Education Committees; AMC Source; our sponsors; and all the other volunteers who made MAC’s return to Chicago so wonderful. Chicago will always be a special place for MAC to visit. But, in March, when the rates are better.
