My top conference pick has always been the Worldviews Conference jointly offered by OCUFA, University World News and OISE. The conference looks at the relationship between media and higher education bringing together journalists who are awesome story tellers and academics who tell us what the stories mean. Since conference only happens every three years, we keep the fires burning with an annual lecture. Peter Scott joined us this year and you can read my summary of his talk here. http://www.universityworldnews.com/article.php?story=20170417182241756
