It's been a FAQ this week, so just to remind all of our participants: 10 minutes means 10 minutes. We can't and won't allow anyone to go over, because that could irreparably throw off our schedule which could in turn wreck things for everyone at home.

We're going to be saying this a lot over the next few weeks: the 10 minute time limit for presentations is a hard cap, and we have to be very strict with it to keep everyone on schedule.

For others, treating this like a poster may make more sense, though we caution against using enormous walls of text. Others may want to eschew PowerPoint etc altogether and use their time to talk through their work without visual aids.

We want to encourage everyone to be creative with how they use their 10 minutes. Focus on the most important parts of your study, delivered in the most engaging way you can. For some, this might look like spreading your findings out across a lot of slides to tell your story.

We've heard that some people think we're affiliated with or run by the American Society of Criminology -- that is not true. We're our own entity, independent of all national and regional organizations.

Just a few reminders: 1) CrimCon is free to anyone who wants to participate as a presenter, free to attend, and free to view after the event. 2) CrimCon is not a pandemic replacement. We hope to be around for a long time.

We've been asked if we're open to different types of presentations, so just for the record, the answer is: If you think you've got something unique to offer that will be beneficial to our audience, why not? Send us a proposal and we'll consider it. crimcon.org/submit-an-abstra…
