About the Conference
Dear Colleagues,
In light of the recent news regarding COVID-19, a decision has been made to reschedule the 2020 UIC Bringing Administrators Together Conference to a later date, as the event is considered a “large, non-essential” University gathering.
If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to reach out to the 2020 UIC BAT Conference Planning Team at batconferenceuic@uillinois.edu. We appreciate your continued support of this conference and we look forward to seeing you at the future conference date.
Kind regards,
