Notification of acceptance will be sent out by December 22.

Proposal Submission Deadline

Proposals will be evaluated as they are received, and priority may be given to those who submit early. The Proposal Deadline is December 7, 2011 (extended).

Proposal Evaluation

The committee will evaluate each proposal on the basis of subject matter (including, but not limited to, the issues listed in the topic descriptions), clarity, and timeliness. Proposals should be for original work that has not been published. We may request that some presenters combine sessions with complementary subject matter.
