Held in the same big ballroom as the opening session and keynotes, it was a fun but almost overwhelming session, coming at the end of an (exhilarating/exhausting) first day. The first speaker up was [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The second session I attended was a continuation of the CRA-W workshop for Early Career Track professionals, on preparing for a promotion. Given that I&#8217;m just starting my job search, this topic was somewhat less than relevant for me, and I had a little bit of trouble connecting to the subject matter. That wasn&#8217;t the [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;ve been a little antsy and anxious all week, partially because of the presentation I&#8217;m giving and the job hunting/networking I&#8217;m planning to do, but largely because I just wanted to get this thing going.
