Dear MAC Members:
This is a friendly reminder that Oct. 17 is the deadline (still plenty of
time) to submit panel proposals (teaching, research, PF&R) for the 2010 AEJMC 
conference in Denver, Aug. 4-7.  I look forward to reading 
your proposals.  Proposals should be one page in length and include the
following:
(1)    Panel Title
(2)    Panel Type:  Indicate whether the proposal is for a TEACHING, 
PF&R, or RESEARCH panel.
(3)    Panel Sponsorship:  Indicate whether you are proposing a 
MAC-only panel or a co-sponsored panel.  For co-sponsored panels, list 
other AEJMC divisions or interest groups for which this proposal might 
prove relevant.  Please note: MAC sole-sponsored panel proposals will 
be considered.  However, the majority of  AEJMC panels tend to be 
co-sponsored across divisions and interest groups.
(4)    Description of Panel:  Provide a succinct description in 
paragraph form of the key issues or subject matter to be addressed by 
the panelists.
(5)    Possible Panelists:  Indicate individuals who would be 
appropriate participants for this panel (may include academics, 
professionals, advocacy organizations). For those you list, indicate 
whether they have been contacted and have committed to participate.  If 
you plan to recruit a Denver-area professional for the panel, indicate 
this as well.  Please note: It is not necessary to have a full slate of 
four participants at the proposal stage.
Best to commit no more than 3 participant speakers at this point since 
other divisions may want to contribute one or more speakers once they 
agree to co-sponsor a panel.
(6)    Moderator:  This can be you or someone you nominate to moderate 
the panel.
(7)    Contact Person:  Include your name, mailing address, e-mail 
address, and telephone number as the contact person for this panel 
proposal.
My best regards to all,
Ilia
