Better than I thought

I actually ended up liking the conference a lot more than I thought I would. While it seemed some classes had slightly different assignments, I still found most of the presentations interesting. During the discussion periods, I was also able to talk about ideas that other groups in my class researched and contribute even more to the discussion. If I had to criticize something, I would say Macaulay should do a better job communicating to teachers just how important this conference is and what exactly they want groups to prepare for it.
