>Dear MAP members:
>
>To all our new and returning members, welcome back to another
>academic year. We hope that the upcoming MAP conference will be
>one of the highlights of 2005-2006 for many of you. The meeting will
>take place in Salt Lake City, Utah, hosted by Westminster College,
>from March 3-4, 2006. Local arrangements are being handled by
>Georgiana Donavin. Abstracts for papers are due November 1, 2005
>and can be sent via e-mail attachment simultaneously to Georgiana
>Donavin (gdonavin at westminstercollege.edu), local arrangement
>organizer, and Brenda Schildgen (bdschildgen at ucdavis.edu),
>secretary of MAP. Because this will be MAP’s 40th anniversary, we
>are hoping to recognize some of our history and the history of our
>discipline at this meeting, through special sessions. Your one-page
>abstract MAP proposal should include your name, institution, and
>e-mail address.
>
>Graduate student members are reminded that MAP subsidizes
>student registration fees for our annual meetings, and that it makes
>available the following awards and prizes: the John F. Benton Travel
>Awards, which contribute $400.00 towards the cost of travel to
>conferences for independent scholars and graduate students; and
>the Founders’ Prizes, given to the best graduate student papers
>delivered at the annual MAP conference. The next deadline for the
>Benton awards is November 1, 2005: applications should be made
>to the Vice President, Phyllis Brown (PBrown at scu.edu).
>To renew your membership, please go to the MAP website
>(http://medieval.ucdavis.edu/map/) to download the membership

>I look forward to seeing many of you in Utah next March. In the
>meantime, do check in with the website to keep abreast of MAP’s
>activities.
