LSA 50th anniversary Minnesota 2014
L. Jane McMillan
Dear CRN Law and Indigeneity,
Please see the message below from the conference organizers. The LSA's 50th anniversary meeting is taking place in Minnesota May 29 – June 1.
If you are interested in organizing a panel or submitting a paper as part of the CRN please consider using this list to organize submissions. It would be wonderful to have a strong showing of Law and Indigeneity panels and papers at this conference.
Please note the submission deadline is early and firm on October 15, 2013.
Each CRN may expect that a maximum of four panels will be scheduled non-concurrently, but CRNs are welcome to submit more panels. A CRN with more than four panels is free to make the case for which panels should be scheduled concurrently and non-concurrently by emailing Meeting Manager Kris Monty atmo...@lawandsociety.org
The Program Committee will, however, have discretion to make final decisions, including, but not limited to, adding an open submission paper to a CRN panel, which will help connect new attendees to pertinent CRNs.
This policy was in the website of the Call for Proposals sent August 30 http://www.lawandsociety.org/minneapolis2014/2014CRN.html but I take a moment to drop you this note since this is an important change from previous years.
Also, I urge you to review the website for the changes in timing for submission of proposals. Briefly, these dates are:
August – start Call for Proposals
October 15 – Submission deadline, no new submissions
December 16 – Acceptance emailed
January 6 – Registration starts, Ready Room available
February 14 - Registration deadline for program participants
March 14 – Preliminary Program is online
April 15 –No more changes accepted for printed program.
All the best.
Many thanks.
