The WPA Annual Conference in Your Backyard!

The WPA Executive Board is soliciting proposals to host the WPA Summer Conference, Workshops, and Institutes in 2010 and 2011.

As regular WPA attendees know, the WPA Summer Conference, Workshop and Institutes are sponsored by one or more institutions and hosted by local WPAs, members of the Executive Board, and the WPA at large. This is a terrific opportunity to be active in WPA, to build working relationships with WPAs in your area and to showcase your academic institution and home area.

I'm pleased to announce that the WPA Executive Board has authorized a special registration fee of $175 for graduate students attending the 2007 WPA Summer Conference in Tempe.

Currently, the special fee is available by mail-in registration using the form attached at the bottom of this node: http://wpacouncil.org/conference2007. We hope to make the special registration fee available for online registration and payment sometime in the next few days.
