Kathryn “Kat” Hauschild was recently selected to receive the 2007 IACC Conference Center Industry Award. This award is given by the International Association of Conference Centers and is based upon a candidate’s academic achievement, need for financial assistance and preparation for a career in the conference center industry.
The award package includes a $5,000 grant-in-aid, plus an all-expense paid trip to attend the IACC’s 26th Annual Conference at The Heldrich in New Brunswick, New Jersey, from April 19-22, 2007. Kat will be presented with the award at a special awards luncheon on Friday, April 20.
