1) I'm pleased to call your attention to our fourth annual
Interdisciplinary Research Conference, to be held on our campus next
March 30-31 (2001).
The Conference solicits papers and presentations from undergraduates
that focus on interdisciplinary approaches to topics, issues, ideas,
etc., of interest to liberally-educated persons. By the same token,
we are soliciting papers and presentations from faculty that showcase
efforts to teach in interdisciplinary ways and/or ways that foster
interdisciplinary research at the undergraduate level.
Abstracts and papers are due by December 15, 2000.
Please see the Conference website for the call for papers and for
further details: <www.drury.edu/faculty/ess/irconf/cfp01.html>
