Researching New York: Upstate, Downstate, in cities and on farms, from soldiers to sweatshop workers, intellectuals to agitators, from the Great Lakes to the Adirondacks, Seneca Falls to Stonewall; the people and places of New York State have a long, rich, and wide-ranging history. We invite complete panel or individual paper proposals on any aspect of New York State history for a conference sponsored by Department of History and the History Graduate Student Organization on November 19, 1999 at the University at Albany.

Proposals are due by September 17, 1999. Presenters will be notified by September 30, 1999. Submit a one-page abstract for each paper and a one-page curriculum vitae for each presenter to history@csc.albany.edu or mail to: Tod Ottman, Conference Coordinator As it becomes available, additional information will be posted on the conference homepage at http://www.albany.edu/history/researchny.
