2026 Presenting Author Schedule!

The Presenting Author Schedule is ready!  View our offerings and make a personalized list of sessions you'd like to see. Fast Pass events are identified with a small ticket icon in the upper right corner.

When attending author events, bring a clear bag to avoid entry delays while adhering to the university's Clear Bag Policy.  

Allow a little extra time:  With an increase in security, screenings may take extra time depending on crowds, so plan to arrive early to avoid missing your session.

Each event on this grid has a star next to it. Click a star to bookmark an event. Click it again to remove the bookmark. When you are finished, you can view your bookmarked events in a printer-ready format here.
