A team of almost 30 educators from across the country and the education spectrum gathered in Washington, D.C., earlier this month to evaluate and select session proposals for Forum 2010. For two days, the Forum Program Planning Committee pored over more than 250 proposals for an in-depth review of sessions on topics ranging from partnerships between K–12 and higher education and closing gender gaps, to college admission tips and federal financial aid policies. Sessions were grouped by professional disciplines such as teaching, admission and administration, and cross-professional teams performed the first round of reviews. Proposals went through a second round of reviews in groups arranged by professional areas to ensure that the selected sessions would be of the highest interest and value to attendees.
