Delegate Information
2006 Sigma Xi Annual Meeting and Student Research Conference
November 2-5, 2006
Detroit Marriott Renaissance Center
Detroit, Michigan
Through Regional and Constituency Caucuses, Assemblies of Delegates, chapter training, structured networking and informal discussions, the Sigma Xi Annual Meeting offers an opportunity for delegates from Sigma Xi chapters to learn more about the Society. Delegates are able to share ideas for chapter-based activities, to learn best practices of chapter management, and to conduct important Society business impacting both chapters and individual members. The environment is further enriched through dedicated sessions on science and engineering and other activities that foster scientific exchange.
The Annual Meeting is open to all interested participants. Registration is required, and each of Sigma Xi's chapters may designate up to three delegates to attend the Meeting. Only one of the three, the designated voting delegate, will receive airfare compensation from the Society to attend the Annual Meeting. For a chapter to remain in good standing with Sigma Xi, a designated voting delegate must attend one Annual Meeting every three years. The official delegate from each chapter is responsible for casting votes during the general assemblies.
Delegates are encouraged to bring guests—fellow members and non-members alike—to the Annual Meeting. A guest registration fee allows general access to the Meeting, and individual tickets may be purchased for activities including social functions and the Sigma Xi banquet.
