The Student Volunteer program is an opportunity for students from around the world to associate with the top people in object and related technologies, research, and software development. In return for a few hours of their time, student volunteers receive complimentary registration, free admission to tutorials (space permitting), and other benefits. A limited number of volunteers may receive some financial support in return for additional volunteer hours. In past years, job assignments included assisting with symposia and panels, checking badges at doors, working at the information booth, and helping with conference registration.
