Proffing It

"Those who know, do. Those that understand, teach" ~Aristotle


Proffing Itis an exciting, one-of-a-kind event where participants will find themselves on the other side of the table – taking classes on pre-assigned topics while the professors and their peers question the participants about the material that they have taught.
