"Due to the current health crisis and the uncertainty around how long it will last, we have decided to postpone SISPP until the summer of 2022. All of those who would have qualified for 2021 SISPP but would have no longer been eligible in 2022 will be granted an extra year of eligibility. We look forward to fun and vibrant in-person SISPP at OSU in the summer of 2022."
-- Tessa West and Sapna Cheryan, SISPP Committee Co-Chairs
