The Child Nutrition Archives at the National Food Service Management Institute (NFSMI) is pleased to announce its first symposium on Child Nutrition Programs (CNP). The event will be held on the Oxford campus of the University of Mississippi, March 20 - 21, 2006. We invite presentation proposals concerning the history, implementation, and development of the federally funded U.S. CNP (National School Lunch, School Breakfast, Special Milk, and Child and Adult Care Food Program) and feeding programs that predate the federal programs. Historians, political scientists, and scholars in related fields are encouraged to submit proposals. Interdisciplinary collaborations are particularly encouraged. Each presenter will be given 25 minutes with time at the end for questions from the audience.
