Deadline for Submission of Paper or Poster Abstracts
Friday, September 26th, 2008
 

     All paper and poster abstracts should be sent by email to Kurt Schroeder, Plymouth State University, at kschroed@plymouth.edu.  Please attach as a MS Word document or include inline in your email the following information:

  • Authors Name(s)
  • Authors Professional Affiliation(s)
  • Title of Paper or Poster
  • Paper or Poster Abstract.  The abstract should be no more than 200 words long.
  • Up to five keywords to help us organize the paper sessions

     Even if you do not consider yourself a geographer, it is appropriate to present a paper or poster at this meeting if the paper has a geographic theme or elements. A topic is geographic if it considers place, space, or location or if it deals with human environmental interactions or the movement of people, goods, or services. Geographers deal with a tremendously diverse range of topics from biogeography to historical geography, urban neighborhoods to soils and landforms, culture, to climate and water issues. If you have any doubt about the appropriateness of your topic, or have any other concerns, just give me a call at 603-535-2213 or send an email to the above address.
