Michelle Poler has gained renown as a social entrepreneur, keynote speaker, fear facer, and branding strategist. Perhaps best known for her social movement Hello Fears, Michelle rewrote her definition of fear and changed her approach to life by facing 100 of her fears over a period of 100 days.

She recently shared her excitement about joining campus recreation professionals and students this coming February, for NIRSA’s first association-wide virtual conference!

Program details are now online

Michelle will be on the main stage on February 23, during the NIRSA 2021 Virtual Conference & Campus Rec and Wellness Expo, sponsored by PLAE. Program details, including educational session descriptions, are now available online. We’re looking forward to three days of making connections, exploring the latest products and services, discovering solutions, and celebrating many member accomplishments and contributions. Early bird registration discounts last until February 2, so register soon to save.

Financial assistance from the NIRSA Foundation is still available to students and professionals. In today’s difficult economic climate, financial assistance for professional development is more important than ever before. The NIRSA Foundation’s scholarship program affords professional growth opportunities for the field’s leading students and professionals by minimizing the cost of event registration. Applications are due February 11.
