Annual Meeting Call for Papers

NCERA-210 is accepting abstracts of papers and organized symposia for presentation and discussion at the annual meeting November 11-12, 2009.  We welcome abstracts on any topic dealing with cooperatives and related forms of businesses.  The abstract should clearly outline the topic to be covered, its importance, its relevance to agricultural cooperatives, and, in the case of organized symposia with multiple participants, the role of each presenter, and a discussion plan.  The abstracts should contain the following sections: Motivation, Objective(s), Methods, Results, and Plan for Discussion.

The length of the abstracts should be between one and two pages of text (MS Word preferred).  Please submit abstracts electronically to Greg McKee at gregory.mckee@ndsu.edu.  Members of the NCERA-210 Executive Committee will begin considering the abstracts on October 5, 2009 and will notify all submitters by October 9, 2009 about paper acceptance.

Travel scholarships for graduate students are available, with those presenting papers having the highest priority for funding.  The Ralph K. Morris Foundation is providing the support.  Graduate students should submit a one page request for funding to the Ralph K. Morris Foundation that contains the following information: 1) Discuss why they wish to attend the conference, 2) submit a budget with travel, lodging, and registration, 3) contact information, and 4) whether or not they have submitted an abstract for presentation.  Contact the Ralph K. Morris Foundation for more information (www.ralphkmorrisfoundation.org).
