尊敬的SMIFC合作伙伴:

On behalf of the SMIFC planning committee, I want to assure all who are attending this year’s conference that we are closely monitoring the COVID-19 developments.  To keep conference attendees safe, we have decided to limit the number of registrations for this year’s conference and encourage those who plan to attend, to register by next week (week ending September 24, 2021).

The safety of all our conference attendees is of utmost importance to 斯科特商学院 and bc菠菜导航. By attending the 2021 Student Managed Investment Fund Conference, 在芝加哥, IL, you agree to abide by and engage in certain health and safety beneficial conduct while attending the conference. 这包括, 但不限于, wearing a mask at all times unless actively eating or drinking, maintaining appropriate physical distancing, and not attending the event if you are ill or have been recently exposed to COVID-19. These protocols are a living document that will continue to evolve as venue and local standards change. We are monitoring the COVID-19 status and following guidance from the CDC as well as following standards set forth by the venue and the State of Illinois authorities. We will execute the following best practices to help attendees stay healthy and to reduce exposure and risk.

SMIFC将:

• Wash hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially after going to the bathroom; before eating; and after blowing your nose, 咳嗽, 或打喷嚏. If soap and water are not readily available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol.
