It’s Saturday morning, 28 October 2017, opening day of the 44th Biennial Convention of the Honor Society of Nursing, Sigma Theta Tau International (STTI). Many of the gathering’s more than 2,000 attendees have already arrived, some to participate in preconvention events, with others arriving this morning. Shortly after noon, Catherine Catrambone, president of STTI and associate professor at Rush University College of Nursing, will welcome them and strike the keynote in her opening plenary presentation titled “Influence to Advance Global Health and Nursing.”
I took a brief stroll this morning around the JW Marriott, venue of the convention, and snapped a few photos to provide a visual taste. I invite you to return to this blog in the next few days to enjoy onsite, eyewitness reports from convention attendees. Welcome to “Convention Connection.”
