We are preparing for a particularly exiting conference this year, which will feature two additional initiatives: the 3rd Annual Project 2005 will occupy a portion of the program and has posted a separate call at (www.aom-iaom.org/Project-2001.html). Project 2005, a multidisciplinary, multi-year effort designed to promote the integration of management, education, technology, and leadership through a series of international congresses and special publications. Formal papers, workshops and symposia are invited as contributions. And the “New Professor” (www.aom-iaom.org/new_prof.html), an avant-guard initiative, composed of creative, enlightened, participating educators concerned and deeply dissatisfied with the present conditions of institutions of higher learning. These professors are those who are committed to break away from the 20th century, monolithic brick-and-mortar models of traditional universities. This portion of the conference does not require the submission of formal papers. Instead, the program creates a platform for abstract submissions that will be presented as short talks grouped into colloquia based on common themes. The “New Professors” will form a group of avant-guard individuals intent on developing affective technological, pedagogical paradigms and moral philosophies designed to change the present structure and delivery of educational programs and services. This group will have direct publication access to the writing and release of multiple textbooks and journals geared toward the propagation and practice of necessary educational reforms. A publishing house has already been selected. Additional programs featured at the conference are Human Resource Management and Organizational Behavior and Management (HRMOB), with Cyber-technology and Computer Science (CSCS) situated among sections of specialties noted in the listed AoM/IAoM divisions. * Each of these programs, complete with names and acronyms are official trademarks belonging to each of the organizations both nationally and internationally. All may be accessed via www.e-academe.org and/or viewed directly on www.aom-iaom.org . The deadline for initial submissions is May 31, 2001. All AoM/IAoM and Project 2005 papers will pass a blind peer review process for publication in the 2001 AoM/IAoM and Project 2005 Proceedings. A selection of exceptionally provocative and innovative papers from these selections will be published in edited volumes of a number of journals. All “New Professor” submissions will be reviewed for program inclusion as short talks and abstract publications, yet readied for full-scale textbook chapters and journal article publications within a two-year window.
