The Midwest Instruction and Computing Symposium

The Midwest Instruction and Computing Symposium (MICS) is a regional conference dedicated to providing higher education participants an educational experience focused on the integration of computer-based technology in the teaching and learning processes of all disciplines and the incorporation of the study of this technology in the curriculum. The Symposium was established in 1967, making it one of the nation’s oldest conferences focusing on computer related issues at smaller institutions of higher education. MICS was formerly known as the Small College Computing Symposium. For more information on the history and goals of MICS see: www.micsymposium.org
