Overview of conference schedule
Sunday July 25th - Evening welcome reception with NYS Beer and Wine Tasting!
Monday July 26th and Tuesday July 27th: Conference sessions slated to include:
Saratoga Race Course and visit the National Racing Hall of Fame.
Call for Abstracts
The 2010 meeting will involve presentations, posters, and interactive dialogue covering the
five topical areas presented below. Abstracts are encouraged from Faculty, Extension
Associates, Administrators, and Industry Professionals. Details on abstract preparation and
submission can be found at this link - if this file does not load properly and/or you do not have
a password please e-mail kbump@cazenovia.edu - abstract submission guidelines.
NOTE: The full abstract submission information is provided on this page as well as
preliminary conference registration.
1. ‘Characteristics of Excellence’ in undergraduate equine education
– oral presentations and workshop.
All of us are likely to say that we have an "excellent" program or offering in the Equine
discipline, but how do we judge the quality of our programs, how do we articulate what
makes it “excellent”, and what characteristics are used, or could be used, to identify that
excellence?
Details on this session and call for presenters will be posted soon.
2. Building Relationships between equine academics and the equine industry
– oral and poster presentations.
Enthusiastic discussion of desire to increase collaborative relationships with the
equine industry occurred at the 2009 NAEAA business meeting. A call for proposals
in this area focuses on models of successful relationships that could be implemented
by other colleges and universities.
Abstracts are encouraged from faculty, extension associates, administrators, and
industry groups that have developed and/or worked with programs that build
relationships between industry and academia. Submitters are encouraged to focus less
on the ‘mechanics’ of offered programs and more on the benefits derived from the
relationships including: how relationships were established (from traditional classroom
experiences to non-traditional and adult programs such as industry seminars/short
courses, industry ‘official’ training programs and schools), how relationships advance
the equine academic discipline, and ways in which the relationships impact on the
curriculum and curricular offerings including areas such as student internships, alumni
job placement, advisory board use/involvement, and donations.
3. Building successful models of collaboration for both student and faculty exchange
between NAEAA member institutions – oral and poster presentations
The expansion of the equine discipline across the country coupled with increasingly
challenging economic times provides both opportunity and impetus for collaborative
efforts that enable doing more with less!
Abstracts are encouraged from faculty, extension associates, administrators who have
developed and/or worked with successful collaborative models (college-to-college,
college-to-university, college-to-industry, etc.). Submitters are encouraged to focus
attention on the benefits of collaboration to the institution and its students as well as the
aspects of the collaborative efforts that could be replicated at other institutions.
4. Developing and maintaining revenue streams in equine undergraduate education –
poster presentations
Increasingly challenging economic times in Higher Education are resulting in even more
pressure being placed on equine programs to generate revenue and ‘pay their own
way’.
Abstracts are encouraged from faculty, extension associates, administrators that present
successful models of revenue generation that have the ability to be replicated at other
institutions.
5. Incorporating industry 'hot topics' into the curriculum – poster presentations
From ongoing technology innovations to emerging career fields (such as incorporating
horse handling into child and adult counseling programs) and to the increasing
pressures we face with the challenges of unwanted horses, ‘hot topics’ in the industry
are an important part of preparing students to be leaders in the equine industry.
Abstracts are encouraged from faculty, extension associates, administrators, and
industry that present models of incorporating ‘hot topics’ into the curriculum and/or
promote the rationale for ‘hot topic’ inclusion.
Submission Guidelines:
Abstracts may be submitted for either oral or poster presentation format review. The process
is a one-time electronic submission to jeffp@sulross.edu with a deadline of Monday March
29th. Authors will be notified of abstract acceptance by May 1st.
Abstracts are limited to 750 words and, if accepted, will be published electronically exactly as
submitted. Copy should be checked for accuracy and misspelling prior to submission.
Abstract acceptance, program scheduling and the form of presentation will be communicated
via e-mail only to the person listed as the correspondent.
