This is a ‘NO BAG CONFERENCE’. For several years delegates have been telling us not to provide a conference bag, so this year we have responded. In lieu of bags, EARCOS will donate money $1,500 to the Baobei Foundation, a wonderful organization with which both SAS Pudong and Puxi campuses are involved.
