The Southern Association for Women Historians invites proposals for the Seventh Southern Conference on Women’s History, to be held June 8-11, 2006, on the campus of the University of Maryland, Baltimore County. The conference provides a stimulating and congenial forum for the discussion of all aspects of women’s history. Its program seeks to reflect the best in recent scholarship, especially by young scholars and graduate students. The program also wishes to reflect the diversity of women’s historical experiences and to explore the histories of women from a wide range of racial, class, and ethnic backgrounds. Proposals in Public History are especially welcome.

The Program Committee solicits proposals for complete panels and individual papers, as well as media presentations and roundtable sessions. Proposals for panels or sessions should include two copies each of the following: a) a cover sheet available on the web, b) a one page summary of the panel or session as a whole, c) a one page proposal for each paper or presentation, and d) a brief curriculum vitae for each participant. Individual paper proposals should include two copies each of the following: a) a cover sheet available on the web, b) a one page proposal, and c) a brief curriculum vitae. Those interested in chairing a session or commenting on one are also invited to send a c.v. to the Program Committee.
