Our first task is to find the host school and the location for the Congress. In the past, the University of Illinois at Chicago, Ohio State University at Columbus, the University of Maryland at College Park, the University of Minnesota at Minneapois-St. Paul and the University of Ketuckey at Lexington have hosted the past five Congresses respectively. This year, priority will be given to those schools which have not hosted Congress before. IFCSS member organizations are encouraged to submit proposals to host the Fifth Congress. Here are some basic information (or expectations) about the Congress. Time preferred: July 08 - July 31 Participants (delegates, quests, observers): 250-300 Days: 3-4 (Must include a weekend) Requirement for host schools: A: an active group of volunteers to work for the Congress; B: convenient location and transportation; C: competitive price for meeting rooms and lodging. If your organization is interested, please contact the HQ as soon as possible. Thank you for your attention.
