Thanks for taking the time to read this reminder of the L.Douglas Wilder School of Government and Public Affairs Fifth Annual Student Research Conference on Friday, April 15, 2011 on the campus of Virginia Commonwealth University. Attached is the call for papers, which we may have already sent. The deadline for submitting abstracts is currently March 25, 2011.
We have some exciting news about this year's conference that might be of interest to your students who may want to engage their research on a more global level. This year we will have student panelists from VCU's 8 partner universities, including students from China, Australia, South Africa, Brazil, Mexico, Russia, Spain, and Turkey. We are expecting at least 15 students to join the conference and with the inclusion of more than twelve schools from across the region last year, our conference looks to be a truly global affair.
Please encourage your undergraduate students to consider sending an abstract for what promises to be a very exciting research opportunity. We can accommodate approximately 24 panels so space may be limited, but we hope to include all worthy submissions that meet the broad test of "Government, Public, and International Policy and Affairs."
Send abstracts to wilder.conference@gmail.com. Details are found in the informational letter and flyer or please feel free to email me at cjsaladino@vcu.edu.
