Description
ABSTRACT In recent years, attendance at academic professional meetings has, for the most part, declined. Given that the benefits of attendance are usually substantial, this paper seeks to identify some causes of the decline in attendance and discusses some logistical issues related to organizing and attending professional meetings. The paper concludes with some recommendations for those who may plan academic conferences in the future and discusses an alternative to actual conference attendance which seems to be growing in popularity--the "virtual conference."
