First-Year Conference 2011 All University faculty, staff and administrators were invited to participate in the bi-annual Focusing on the First Year Conference. Over 300 people had the opportunity to dialogue and strategize about academic and student development issues relating to first-year students. This conference was held at Coffman Memorial Union on the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities, campus on February 16, 2011. We shifted the date from October 2010 to allow more flexibility with an advising and career retreat. Keynote and special guest Shane J. Lopez, Ph.D. was research director and a member of the founding board of directors for the Board of Directors for the Clifton Strengths School.
