Going to the ASA annual meeting while not in school?

Thanks for your insight - I did end up going, and I found it really helpful! I met new people and got a lot out of attending sessions as well. -

I am trying to decide if going to the ASA annual meeting would be good for me. Currently, I'm not in school and am working in research at a think tank, which gives me time off/reimburses for conferences. I'm applying to grad school this fall, am very interested in the theme this year, and it's close to me, but I'm not in grad school (and am also not an undergrad). A mentor of mine is going, but none of my friends in sociology grad programs are this year because they don't think it's worth it, so I'd be going alone. Could I get anything out of going? Has anyone gone under similar circumstances?
