DEADLINES EXTENDED!

Student Papers and Chapter Posters - Triennial International Convention

The deadlines for submitting proposals for the Chapter Development Showcase poster session and for student research paper presentations at the 2017 Triennial International Convention have been extended to Sunday, September 24.

The convention will be held in Kansas City, MO on November 2-4, 2017. Visit http://pigammamu.org/convention-2017.html for details.  

The Chapter Development Showcase poster session is designed to feature posters from Pi Gamma Mu chapters that exemplify the diverse strengths of our chapters, to create a forum for exchanging ideas regarding a wide range of chapter activities, and to promote interaction among participants and attendees. It is a chance for convention attendees to come together and use poster displays to share the good work they do.

The Student Research Paper sessions will provide Pi Gamma Mu members an opportunity to present their research at an international academic convention.  Please encourage the members of your chapter, including undergraduates, graduate students, and alumni members, to submit their best research papers for presentation.  The authors of the top ten rated student papers will receive a complimentary hotel room for one night at the convention hotel.  Outstanding papers may also be considered for a special convention issue of the International Social Science Review. 

The application instructions for the chapter poster session and for student papers are attached to this email.  The Convention Registration Form is also attached.  Convention registration includes some meals, workshops, presentations, an awards ceremony, a keynote address, student elections to the Board of Trustees, a new optional Leadership Development Program, and much more. 

We hope to see you and your chapter's delegates in Kansas City!
