Announcement & Call for Papers

The 25th Annual Meeting of the Society for Scientific Exploration will be held in Orem, Utah, on June 8-10. The theme of this 25th anniversary meeting is "25 Years of Progress: What Have We Learned?" Contributed papers on any topic of interest to the Society are, as always, welcome.

Titles and abstracts for contributed papers should be sent to the Program Director: York Dobyns C-131 Engineering Quad Princeton University Princeton, New Jersey 08544-5263. E-mail: ydobyns @ princeton.edu

Electronic submission is strongly encouraged. Submissions sent by surface mail should include "ATTN: SSE PROGRAM" on the envelope.
