SWDSI is here to welcome you. If you participate in our region, thank you and we hope you find these pages informative. If you are new to the region, take a few minutes and get to know us.

SWDSI conducts our annual meeting in conjunction with the Federation of Business Disciplines. Our 2022 SWDSI Conference was certainly one to remember in New Orleans. It was good to see many of our colleagues back in person. I think our conference provides a great value for everyone who attends.

The Call for Papers is open and we encourage your submissions. If you would like to help or have any suggestions please contact our Program Chair, Dr. Kittipong ‘Ken’ Boonme (KBoonme@twu.edu) directly. Houston is a great city to visit. It is a great venue with something for everyone in your family.

If you are new to the region or at a university or a community college that does not normally attend SWDSI, please consider joining us in Houston. We encourage students at all levels to join us in a supportive environment to present and discuss your research. PhD students also are encouraged to participate in the Doctoral Student Consortium.

It is my privilege to serve as SWDSI president and an honor to join a long line of great individuals. Our mission is to provide a forum for the exchange of ideas, provide teaching and professional development, and provide information to improve classroom instruction, which I believe we do very well.

Please do not hesitate to reach out to me Daniel.Peak@unt.edu, or any of our officers if you have questions about our chapter or the 2023 conference.

Dan Peak, University of North Texas
SWDSI President 2022-2023
