Dear Cathy,
        Please send us an abstract.  The conference is for students in the New
England area and all of the abstracts are subject to review by a committee to
make sure the topics are appropriate to the sessions. We would be glad to hear
from you even if you aren't enrolled in a graduate program yet, but again, you
should be from the New England area.  Keep in touch and thanks for your
inquiry.
        Karen Metheny
