INSPIRE

Regional or National — your choice. INSPIRE transcends geography and amplifies student-led scholarship.

INSPIRE Symposium

Regional or National — Lead Where You Are

INSPIRE gives chapters two powerful pathways: host a local, student-led symposium on your campus or plug into a global 5-year conference arc with rotating themes and shared resources. Both routes grow leadership, deepen involvement, and showcase your cohort’s work.

We provide templates, planning kits, and faculty advisor guidance.

Local INSPIRE (Campus / Regional)

Run a one-day or weekend symposium led by students. Invite nearby programs, alumni, and community partners. Great for building momentum, training moderators, and surfacing emerging projects.

  • Campus venue kit + run-of-show
  • Call-for-Papers templates & review rubrics
  • Poster session + lightning talks
  • Optional STRATA tie-in for selected works

Global INSPIRE (5-Year Conference)

Join a rotating, multi-year conference arc with shared themes, speaker pools, and cross-chapter collaboration. Scale your chapter’s reach while contributing to a global anthology of student inquiry.

  • Yearly themes & global CFP windows
  • Cross-campus panels & virtual options
  • Mentor network + advisor roundtables
  • Publication/STRATA pipelines for standout work
Local Highlights

  • Budget-friendly formats
  • Leadership training for moderators & editors
  • Community partners + alumni engagement
Global Highlights
