When you are attending as a student of NYCALC, we encourage you to engage and network with all agency staff present during the week of the Congress.  Agency staff representing a federal agency can nominate and sponsor 3 to 5 Jr. Faculty for future Congresses. Nominated Jr. Faculty are enrolled college-aged students that would be an asset to the Congress and has demonstrated qualities (attitude, support provided, initiative, interests, experience) they believe will enable them to be successful mentors and leaders.
