<p>Last year the banquet (which was on the late Oct date) was focused on minority recruitment. We’d have gone had we received an invite, but did not … an oversight we were told. A bunch of others did not get it either.</p>
<p>Rumor was it was a snoozer, too much speechafying, especially after an already full day of classes, talking-ats, etc. No matter, if you get the invite, go if you can. Anything and everything you can learn is good, imo.</p>
