MINK WIC only accepts electronic payments at the time of registration. We no longer accept checks.

All attendees must be 18 years of age and older by the first day of the conference.

We would appreciate it if you would alert conference staff that you will be unable to attend. However, we will not be able to issue refunds. Payments are not refundable for any reason of any kind.

No, participant changes or substitutions cannot be made to the registration after it is completed. Registration is required to attend the conference.

No, this year the MINK WIC conference and hotel accommodations are located at the same venue, the Hyatt Place Kansas City/Lenexa City Center. You will need to make your arrangements to travel to and from the conference.

Typically at this type of conference people dress casually. You do not need to dress like you would for a job interview, but you need to be neat, and avoid too tight or too baggy clothing. Just come and enjoy being with many other women!

It is a good idea to bring a notebook and a pencil to take notes during the panels and workshops. You should also bring plenty of copies of your resume if you are attending the career fair. To make the most of the networking opportunities at the conference, bring plenty of business cards.

Some workshops may recommend that you bring a laptop, although not required, it may be helpful to get the most out of the event. Sessions that recommend laptops will be noted in the program.

It is important to be respectful and courteous of other presenters. If you attend a session or panel, please arrive before it begins and avoid opening and closing doors during a presentation. If you find yourself in a sticky situation, please wait until presenters are switching and quietly excuse yourself. Also note that noise in the hallway can be heard inside the presentation rooms.

If you are a presenter, you need to arrive at least 5 minutes before the beginning of the session to introduce yourself to the session moderator. You should not leave the session until it is over. It is disrespectful to other presenters if you do not attend the entire session.

Also, please take the opportunity to attend as much of the conference as possible. A significant amount of resources were invested in creating this conference for you as an attendee. Skipping out is not only disrespectful to the conference sponsors and organizers, but it is also doing yourself a disservice by missing out on the incredible program and networking opportunities.

Lodging will incur $30 room fee. We are able to put 5 students per queen room (2 queen beds and 1 sleeper sofa). Some students will also be in king rooms (3 students per room, 1 king bed and 1 sleeper sofa). We will put up to 2 faculty in a king room. During registration, students and faculty may request roommates. We will do everything we can to honor requests, otherwise we will group by grades and then by schools. If you are not a student or faculty member, you should make your own hotel arrangements if needed.

For more in depth information on how accommodations will work for students and faculty, please see our Accomodations page.

All attendees will get Friday night dinner and Saturday lunch. If you pay for lodging, the hotel provides a free Saturday breakfast. We will try to accommodate some dietary restrictions as noted in our registration, however please plan accordingly for your needs.

At this time, we do not provide childcare. All attendees must be registered and 18 years of age and be enrolled in an institution of higher education.
