Past & present MPSA members: check your email & take the survey! @mwcps_tweets & other MPSA constituencies pushed for this & MPSA followed through. The new MPSA leadership (permanent staff & elected leaders) is working hard to improve the MPSA & it will help them to have data!

You know the @mwcps_tweets Lounge is the place to be when even @MPSAnet President-Elect & long-time Caucus member @C_Wolbrecht stops by to hang out! And right after she left, MPSA sent cupcakes 💜
The @mwcps_tweets lounge was HOPPING today. Femme folks are welcome to hang out in the Lounge each day of the conference 💜
The Lounge had so many femme folk this morning that we asked for more tables! @mwcps_tweets
And @MPSAnet sent us cookies & brownies (there may be a few left if you come by soonish!)
Femme folk (inclusively defined) coming to #MPSA2024: the Lounge will be open starting Thursday! If the Palmer House gauntlet (aka lobby) isn't your thing, plan to come by the Women’s Caucus Lounge for a respite: Crest Hill Rm. 3rd floor.
