Can an experienced team give us the low-down, or point us to resources on this? We don't want to show up and be told we missed a submission deadline or failed to do something important!

Some questions we have:

1. When do we sign up for a Chairman's Presentation slot?
2. Is there a Chairman's Orientation meeting?
3. Do we need to do any pre-registration for anything (we're already registered and paid up from our win at the Dallas Regional, is there anything special in TIMS we need to do to sign us up for Chairman's?)
4. Do we need to submit our Chairman's Video again in Atlanta?
5. Is there a secret handshake we need to know to get into the Chairman's Presentation room, or is it clearly marked somewhere?

Thanks so much!

This information may be outdated but this is what I experienced in 2003 and 2005.

1. Thursday they will tell you the slot you have been assigned for Friday's interview, when I went there were two interview rooms, there may be more or less now.
2. No
3. Nothing special
4. I don't know this is new, you should bring it just in case, they aren't judging them this year though so I don't know.
5. It should be marked and you will have an escort to the room
