Site at Fifty: A Historical Tribute to Dr. Ruth Patrick."
The symposium will be held in Aiken, SC and Augusta, GA on October 6-7,

aspects of the Savannah River Site, including the site's cultural,
diplomatic, ecological, economic, environmental, political, public, social,

commentators should send a proposal not to exceed 600 words with a copy of
their vita to the address below no later than December 15, 1999. Those
wishing to organize sessions should include vitas from each participant. A
planning committee will evaluate each proposal and notify participants by
