The Society for Historians of the Gilded Age and Progressive Era
(SHGAPE) co-sponsors panels with the AHA and the OAH at their annual
meetings. It also sponsors independent panels at both meetings--as an
affiliated society of the AHA and in the Pocket Program of the OAH. The
2008 AHA meets in Washington, D. C., January 3-6, 2008; the OAH meets in
New York, March 28-31, 2008. This is our second call for proposals

Those who have proposed or intend to propose panels to the OAH or AHA
program committees may have SHGAPE co-sponsor panels if you send a copy
of your complete proposal to the SHGAPE Program Committee. When
appropriate, the SHGAPE Program Committee will then request
co-sponsorship.

It is also possible to propose independent SHGAPE panels as an
affiliated society at the AHA and at the OAH. Our own deadline for
poposing panels to both organizations is April 15, 2007. To have your
panel considered as part of SHGAPE's program, send a complete copy of
the proposal to the Program Committee at the address below, preferably
by e-mail with attachment.

The SHGAPE Program Committee will be happy to assist members in
organizing and proposing sessions on the Gilded Age and Progressive Era.
Members of this year's SHGAPE Program Committee are Jack Blocker, Huron
University College, University of Western Ontario; Kristin Hoganson,
University of Illinois; Terry Seip, University of Southern California;
and Elaine Parsons, Duquesne University.
