October 18-20, 2007 Western Kentucky University

The 23rd Annual Ohio Valley History Conference (OVHC), sponsored by Western’s history department, will be held on the campus of Western Kentucky University, Bowling Green, Kentucky, on October 18-20, 2007. While the founding colleges of the OVHC come from the Ohio Valley region, conference topics include a broad range of subjects from across the profession. So, while we welcome topics of local interest, subjects outside of Ohio Valley history are especially encouraged, as are interdisciplinary panels.

Proposals for individual papers as well as complete sessions are invited in all areas of historical studies. Abstracts for papers should be approximately 200 words, typed, and single-spaced. Both paper presenters and individuals interested in serving as moderators and/or discussants should send a vita to the OVHC Coordinator. All such material should be received no later than June 1, 2007. The Program Committee will announce selections and send out hotel information by July 1, 2001.
