Dear Colleagues:

 

While I appreciate the desire to make the schedule of talks available earlier than the last minute, I am concerned that the June 2 deadline is SO early that it makes it impossible for students to present their current research—many of them will be just arriving around that time.

Would it not be possible to have a deadline in mid-June and still give Scott enough time to make the schedule and get it out to us at least 2 weeks before the meeting? This year, 2 weeks before the meeting is 28 June.

 

I understand that some people are no longer willing/able to attend the whole 1.5 days of the meeting and would like to plan their schedules further in advance—but I think this is a fairly small group and that our priority, as a place focused on education, should be on allowing students to have the experience of presenting their work at a meeting.

 

 

Linda
