And not only that, Jack Kramer, the Senior Vice President, Strategy and Product Management, Administration with SunGard Higher Education will be delivering the conference opening address. It has been a few years since Mr. Kramer has presented at CBUC, and we're happy to welcome him back.

We've confirmed our Keynote speaker Toni Newman is a dynamic, entertaining, high energy speaker. She'll talk about turning inspiration into innovation and ideas into results. She'll change your thinking from why to why not.

We're also having a pre-conference workshop delivered by the Centre for Higher Education Research and Development (CHERD) Brian Fijal will discuss change in a University and the conflict that results. Through discussion and workshops, he'll review how an understanding of culture, values and University structures can help provide Leadership in Change.

Check back in July to get the full conference schedule. We'll have a greatset of presentations to offer from your colleagues, SunGard consultants and our sponsors.

So come out and join us. We hope to welcome you to Winnipeg for CBUC 2009, September 28 - October 1, 2009.
