The Association of Social and Behavioral Scientists welcomes the submission of session proposals for its 75th annual conference that will be held in Charlotte, North Carolina March 17-20, 2010. We especially welcome sessions related to the conference theme, "Embracing the Past, Impacting the Future." This theme is reflective of the long and rich
tradition of the presentation of action-oriented research papers and grassroots civic activity at this conference that have affected public policy and improved the quality of life for many Americans. This theme is also reflective of the Association's tradition of promoting the growth and development of future academicians and grassroots civic leaders who continue to build upon the foundation established 75 years ago. In addition to sessions featuring faculty, ASBS strongly encourages the submission of sessions featuring and targeting undergraduate and graduate students. Ultimately, this Diamond Jubilee Celebration will feature sessions including, but not limited to, agriculture, anthropology, business, economics, history, social work, sociology, philosophy, political science and psychology.
