Call for Symposium Proposals for the 2013 HL Meeting

The Herpetologists’ League sponsors symposia for our annual meetings.  As part of the Joint Meetings of Ichthyologists & Herpetologists, HL will meet in Albuquerque, New Mexico from 10-15 July 2013.  Any HL member may submit a symposium proposal for this meeting.  Official sponsorship by the HL allows for its scheduling in the meeting program and registration materials.  In addition, a small amount of financial support (generally a maximum of $2000) is available to support sponsored symposia. Sponsorship by the HL does not guarantee financial support and symposia may be sponsored in name only or funded at a level lower than that requested by the applicants.
    Interested persons should submit proposals no later than April 15 2012 to: Mary E. White, Chair HL Symposium Committee (mwhite@selu.edu).
