Hello! This schedule is for the 2017 Woo-Con. We will update it and replace it with the 2018 Woo-Con schedule once we have that finalized. In the meantime, check out what went on at the most recent Woo-Con!
What is on the Schedule?
This schedule includes panels, vendor times, event times, and anime screening times as well. You can make your own itenerary throughout the day! We will also have paper copies of the schedule available for guests who have not visited our website, or just didn't want to print out a schedule of their own.
If you would like to print out your own copy of the schedule, here is the printable hand-out version.
We would like to thank all of our panelists, students, guests or otherwise, for taking time to share their panels with us at the con! We also would like to thank Funimation Entertainment for our viewings. We greatly appreciate it!
Disclaimer: Some of our panels and screenings may contain content that is not appropriate for younger viewers. These are marked as such on the schedule.
We will place content warnings outside of the screening room (The Tartan Room) and the Panel room if any panel or screening contains inappropriate content. A couple of the series were picked with our College of Wooster student guests in mind--after all, we are a college con!--and these series may contain content inappropriate for younger viewers.
For our younger congoers, we strongly recommend that parents follow our content warning signs and ask our staff to see whether or not a screening would be appropriate for their child.
Also, we are not responsible for the content of panels and screenings. While we have pre-screened our series for the convention, panelists are not affiliated with The College of Wooster, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The College.
On to the schedule!
