On July 15th & 16th, the University of Pennsylvania will be holding a Higher Education Web Symposium, "the first and only web design conference for IT Professionals working in Higher Education." The conference focuses on a lot of issues that web developers and designers deal with on an everyday basis, such as usability and good css design, and features such notable speakers as CSS guru Eric Meyer and usability expert Jared Spool.

The conference will also feature two Drupal related sessions. First, fellow Philly Drupal evangelist, and head of the Philly Drupal Group, Nathan Gasser will be presenting as part of the panel Adopting Content Management Systems. Later that day Jody and I will have the privilege of evangelizing Drupal to the conference participants in our session HOWTO: A Drupal Demonstration.

If you're interested in the conference, you should register now, as space is filling up fast on what promises to be a great two-day conference!
