Another important fact is the host school represents the majority of the conference attendees. The top schools

are always Northwestern University, University of Illinois, Urbana – Champaign and the University of Michigan -

Ann Arbor. Northwestern University has put the bar high for the future conferences in the Midwest Region, since

they finally broke the 200 attendees mark.

West Coast Conferences

The average attendance for the ITASA West Coast Conference is: 195.

A few points are to be noted. The Southern California attendees always have shown the strongest presence in

ITASA West Coast Conferences. When the West Coast Conferences are held in Southern California, the Northern

California participants are not as strong compare to the Southern California attendees at Northern California

Conferences. The ITASA 2007 West Coast Conference at Stanford University exhibited a particularly strong

attendance from the Midwest region especially the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign.
