You can call us TOFKAR. LOL.
We have kept the name "ResNet" as the name of the organization; our members are familiar with it and there is some sentiment attached to that name I think. The conference will be marketed as "ResNet presents The Student Technology Conference."
There may come a time when it is appropriate to change our name, but in the meantime...
Thank you for your kind words of appreciation, Todd!
Sheila Crowe
President, ResNet

If the name of the conference is now the "Student Technology
Conference" (which I think is a great name, by the way), what does that
mean for the name of this organization? I assume it's not "The
organization formerly known as ResNet" and represented by a symbol. ;)
Thanks for leadership from everyone for getting this change to happen.
It's been a long time in coming and great to see this organization
evolve as technology does, too.
