The 2024 EDUCAUSE Annual Conference brought together thousands of professionals from academia and private industry to San Antonio to engage in relevant education topics. It was a chance to showcase the city, which hosted the event. EDUCAUSE also created an opportunity to highlight UTSA, according to Vanessa Hammler Kenon, program chair for the conference and UTSA associate vice president of technology compliance and community engagement for University Technology Solutions.
“It was an absolute honor to represent UTSA and the city of San Antonio as the 2024 EDUCAUSE Program Chair, welcoming so many higher-education professionals to our great city,” Kenon said. “Many attendees also visited various UTSA campus sites and had a chance to experience our world-class university.”
UTSA had 88 staff and faculty members representing the university at EDUCAUSE 2024, which saw nearly 8,000 participants from around the world. In addition, UTSA students participated thanks to Kenon, who has brought students to the conference as a longtime supporter of EDUCAUSE.
