Organized Panel
Overview
A panel is a formal exploration of an issue through the presentation of papers (typically four or five). Each panelist presents his or her paper. After all papers have been presented an open discussion follows with the audience. (Note: To avoid scheduling problems and to maximize opportunities, each presenter is limited to participation in one conference session.)
Each presenter must submit her/his paper (via e-mail attachment) to the panel moderator by March 1, 2010.
