Jobs, Conferences, Grants
Submissions on all topics are requested. All proposals must be submitted on the HSS Web site or on the annual meeting proposal forms that are available from the HSS Executive Office. HSS members are asked to circulate this announcement to non-HSS colleagues who may be interested in presenting a paper or poster at the Annual Meeting. You do not need to be a member to participate, but all participants must register for the meeting. Applicants are encouraged to propose sessions that include diverse participants: a mix of men and women and/or a balance of professional ranks (e.g., mixing senior scholars with junior scholars and graduate students). Strong preference will be given to panels whose presenters have different institutional affiliations. Only one proposal per person may be submitted. In order to ensure broad involvement, an individual may only appear once on the program (see the guidelines for exceptions). Prior participation at the 2008 or 2009 meetings will be taken into consideration.
Before sending a proposal to the HSS Office, we ask that everyone read the Committee on Meetings and Programs’ “Guidelines for Selecting Papers, Posters, and Sessions.” The 2010 program co-chairs are Jamil Ragep (McGill University) and Yves Gingras (Université du Québec à Montréal)
