Your letter should contain your reasons for wanting to host, as well as an indication of support from your immediate supervisor.

> (Due December 15th)
>
> Phase 2 - Create a website highlighting your campus venues in relation

>
> Phase 3 - If your institution is selected as a finalist, two members
> of the Conference Selection Committee will come for a site visit in
> March.
