2021 Snezek Plans

The 2021 Snezek had been been planned for face-to-face meeting at Corban University. However, due to the uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic conditions, the planning committee thought it best to have another virtual event. The 2021 Snezek will generally follow the schedule of the 2020 Snezek which had also been interrupted by the global pandemic. (See Past Institutes for more information.)
