Rules
and Guidelines for Suggesting a Programming Event
|
| • |
All programming events are scheduled
for one hour and all suggested programming events should include
sufficient material or activity to fill that hour. |
|
•
|
Programming suggestions will only be
considered from persons who have already purchased their Treklanta
weekend membership for 2019. Please purchase a weekend
membership before submitting any programming suggestion. Programming
suggestions from persons who have not purchased a membership
will not be considered. |
|
•
|
Programming suggestions will only be
considered if you are willing and able to host, moderate or
be a participant in the event. Please do not submit
suggestions for panels for other people to do. |
|
•
|
Please make sure your suggestion is
related to Star Trek or its fandom in some clear and
meaningful way and is interesting, informative, instructional,
educational, entertaining and/or just a whole lot of fun. Suggestions
with only a superficial connection to the franchise will not
be considered. For example, "The Changing Roles
of Female Characters in Star Trek" or "Klingons:
Then and Now" will be considered while "How to Make
Romulan Ale" (which is not so much a discussion about alien
beverages as it is a recipe for one) will not. |
|
•
|
Vanity panels (i.e., a panel about YOU
or that book you just self-published or that blog you write)
will be considered, but the bar for approving such panels is
very high. Consider applying for Guest status instead
if you think you or your book (or blog site or fan film or whatever)
warrants its very own panel. |
|
•
|
If your suggestion is accepted, it will
be placed on the schedule on a day and at a time that is compatible
with and complements the rest of our programming. The
initial time and day assignment may change before the convention
if necessary. If you are unable or unwilling to present
your panel at certain times or on certain days, the chances
of your suggestion being accepted will be diminished. |
