The Canadian University Software Engineering Conference, better known as CUSEC, is held annually in Montreal, and is probably the most fun of any software-related conference anywhere. (Really.)
We're a non-profit organization and each year the conference is put together by a group of dedicated volunteers from different universities across Canada. My contributions to this team include finding and working with speakers and sponsors, and taking care of day-off logistics so things run smoothly. My only regret is not discovering CUSEC sooner.
Some feedback from our speakers:
