Momtofour, are the student presentations worthwhile for the attendees?
My younger son doesn't remember much about them, but it's been two years (and I wasn't there). At the time, he seemed to think they were cool. I guess part of it depends on whether his interests fit in well with what the student talks are about. They do say interactive this year, so maybe they are trying to make them interesting?? If you haven't seen the list, it's:
