A vote by APSE’s executive committee is needed. This notice will be posted on APSE’s website for 10 days. 

To vote, e-mail APSE Executive Director Jack Berninger at jackapse@aol.com. APSE’s officers recommend passage.

Room rate at The Roosevelt will be $179 per night.

In a change from previous years, the conference will run from Monday afternoon through a Thursday night awards banquet. The dates would be June 26-29.
