Kelechi,
We’re aware of the governor’s pending announcement and our executive team is carefully monitoring developments related

At this time we are preparing contingencies for this situation.

Hello Brian and Jim,

In today’s morning briefing from the New York Times - 
https://nyti.ms/2IDS8B6<https://nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fnyti.ms%2F2IDS8B6&data=01%7C01%7Ccchrisinger%40MADISONCOLLEGE.EDU%7C07ea5488430a4a64054708d7c5dcdc98%7C33f001466fcc49e9b5687896b3069d44%7C0&sdata=y5lbhJU0FyuJDBsX0ocfdQzaGwPmgpBexUBEZOqajfg%3D&reserved=0>,
 they say that “Gov. Jay Inslee of Washington will soon ban gatherings of 250 or more people in the Seattle area, 
according to a person involved in the discussions.” How does this affect your deliberations about the conference?

Hello All,
We’re writing to provide you with an update on the EDUCAUSE Security Professionals Conference.  We understand many of 
you are trying to make travel plans, and it is our goal to get updated information to you as it becomes available. 
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Please know that our executive team is carefully monitoring developments related to COVID-19 (Coronavirus). While we 
are preparing contingencies, at this time we are planning to proceed with the Security Professionals Conference. As a 
precautionary measure, EDUCAUSE is actively working with the hotel in Bellevue to increase sanitization practices and 
healthy habits, and hand sanitizer stations will be made available throughout the venue. Please be assured that your 
health and safety is our top priority.
Should we receive information that would prompt us to make adjustments to our event schedule, we will immediately 
notify you and all impacted parties. The conference home

I am in a wait and see mode due to outside scheduling conflicts that have come up.  The CoVID 19 alarms have added to 
my hesitation to register quite yet.

It’s probably too late to set up a virtual attendance option, but I’d certainly be in favor of registering if I were 
able to remotely attend sessions.  I’d hate to miss out on a trip to Washington, but having access to the great content 
of the SPC and RIMM would be a good alternative.

Hello,

I plan to attend the conference as well as RIMM, and my college age daughter will be attending with me as well on an IT 
Cyber scholarship. At this time, I don’t see the risk as being any more than what we are both in everyday at the 
university.

Hi all,

I am wondering if anyone else is concerned about attending the security professionals conference next month.  With 
everything going on in Washington state, I am more than a little nervous about taking unnecessary risks by traveling 
there.

Best,
