http://WWW.carleton.ca/~bgiven/neaa/
Carleton University, Department of Sociology and Anthropology will
be hosting the 1997 N.E.A.A. annual meetings at the very elegant Chateau
Montebello in the village of Montebello, Quebec, Canada April 11 to 13
(please note the change of date and venue from the preliminary call).
The general theme of the conference is "Valued Traditions And New
Directions: Anthropology For The Millennium" but session and paper
proposals reflecting the full diversity of the discipline are welcome.
There will be a plenary session on "Anthropology 2000: Where Are We
Going?"
As always, we extend our invitation to both professionals and
students. You can submit session proposals or abstracts and get hotel
information by mail or email (see below). Participants are encouraged to
propose session topics and papers early (deadlines below). There is a
conference site on the World Wide Web with continually updated
conference information and email links to the organizers. As the
schedule develops, session topics, paper titles and abstracts will be
available at the Web site.
The Chateau Montebello is a five-star resort, the world's largest
log structure, a favourite venue for international conferences. The
organizers strongly urge that you book rooms as soon as possible. The
conference rate is Cdn. $100/night ($72 U.S.) plus tax, single occupancy
with $10 ($7.20 U.S.) added for each additional person up to four per
room (two queen sized beds). Students please note: if you are willing
to "rough it" a little (i.e. two beds) you can share 4 to a room at a
cost of Cdn. $32.50/night (U.S. $24.50). The hotel will book rooms for
two days before and two days after the conference at the conference
rate. The organizers will assist individuals who wish to share rooms to
contact others who wish to share (contact Marc Tyrrell). Montebello is
convenient to the U.S./Canada border crossings at Montreal,
Cornwall/Massena and Ogdensburg/Prescot (about 50 miles from Ottawa and
70 miles from Montreal). There is bus service from Montreal leaving from
505 Maisonneuve 8:15am 6:10pm and from Ottawa from 256 Catherine St. 8am
& 6pm.
