In 2004 OAH, in conjunction with Georgia State University Department of History and the Georgia Association of Historians, will host its second regional conference. Its aim is to serve anew its members at community and four-year colleges and high schools, and those employed in government, museums, and the private sector as well as in major universities. The conference also seeks to encourage persons who will soon serve in these diverse capacities--graduate students--to get involved in professional activities early in their careers.

It will be held in Atlanta, Georgia, on the campus of Georgia State University, July 8-11, 2004. The meeting takes as its special charge a desire to reach members and other historians and graduate students who find it difficult to attend the national meeting held in the spring each year. Atlanta is a convenient, central location in the Southeast and the conference benefits from the relatively inexpensive lodging and services offered by Georgia State University. Considerable attention will be devoted to professional development and the practice of history both in classrooms and in public settings in the South. Preregristation deadline: June 17, 2004.
