The 1996 Economic History Association meetings will be held
September 6 - 8, 1996 at the Claremont Resort and Spa in the
Berkeley/Oakland Hills of California. The theme for this year's
program is "Comparative History." A preliminary program will be
printed in the June 1996 issue of the _Journal of Economic
History_.
Registration materials will be sent to EHA members in early June.
If you are not a member of the EHA and would like to receive
registration materials, please send an e-mail to Ms. Mary King,
EHA Admin. Ass't, eha@falcon.cc.ukans.edu. Include your name and
snail mail address.
Again this year, there will be substantial discounts for graduate
students. All faculty are encouraged to inform their graduate
students of these offers!! Graduate students receive a 50
percent discount on the registration fee, a free one-year
subscription to the Journal of Economic History, discounted hotel
rates, and a 75 percent discount on group meals. And special
gatherings for graduate students are in the works!
Faculty! To help pay for all these graduate student subsidies,
we will be offering you the option to "Treat a graduate student
to lunch" or "Treat a graduate student to dinner." Please plan
now to include a little extra in your registration check. Your
donations are fully tax deductible.
The Claremont Resort and Spa offers tennis, swimming, and more,
as well as spa, massage, sauna, and other pampering. Nearby golf
courses, including the newly opened-to-the-public S.F. Presidio
Golf Course, are there to tempt you. Subject to room
availability, the conference room rates are available for three
days before and three days after the conference. Plan to stay an
extra day or two and indulge.
The most convenient airport to the Claremont Resort is the
Oakland International Airport. Public transportation to/from the
Claremont is spotty. Particularly if you are planning an
excursion, consider renting a car.
