2020 Pirate' Plank Highlight Photos (Zoom)
eYes, the event took place during the Covid pandemic. The student presenters were so amazing. I had postponed the event in Spring 200 to a few weeks after the original presentation event. It was clear after a few weeks that we will not be able to hold the event. In early fall, I received an email from Angus Greene that he really would be interesting in still presenting. I put out the word all the presenters. They all responded with a resounding "YES!"
So of course, we considered all possible way to hold the event. The safest way was to use Zoom. So, we did. We did not have many in the audience for fear that someone might Zoom Bomb us. We did record the event. The recording will be up.
