Presented By
Welcome to the 2023 WRC!
Dear NASPA Western Regional Conference Attendees,
We are thrilled to welcome you to this year's conference at the JW Marriott in Las Vegas, NV, on behalf of the NASPA Western Regional Conference Committee. As we gather this year to recalibrate our purposes and practices, we are filled with great pride and gratitude for the many colleagues who sustained and allowed our institutions to continue to educate our students during the pandemic. This year's conference theme is "Illuminating Purpose, Practice, and Pride."
Over the past few years, we have grappled with the impact of several pandemics, including COVID-19 and racism. We have faced the challenge of trying to be together in community when the pandemic necessitated us being apart. We have been disappointed by how the United States and our institutions have approached the societal impacts of racism on communities of color. We are at a crossroads, as many of our colleagues are either leaving the profession or moving to different institutions that align with their values. Therefore, it is time for us to get clear about our why.
Our work and professional practices must be grounded in evidence-based practices, peer-reviewed research and literature, and the lived experiences of our campus constituents. We cannot simply throw spaghetti at the wall and hope it will stick. We must be deliberate and intentional in our approaches and practices to effect change and deliver on the outcomes of our work.
We want to express our gratitude and appreciation for the positive contributions made by colleagues all over our regions, both large and small. While we recognize that this work is not about us or the need for a gold star, it is essential to know if our work is transformational and impactful to students who access our programs and services. We have so much to be proud of and to have pride in. We are excited to recognize our colleagues.
We are excited to be in community with you all, and we hope this conference provides the space to nourish your heart, mind, and soul.
We look forward to seeing you soon!
