Send abstracts to Jillmarie Murphy (murphyj@union.edu) by Friday, November 29, 2019. Please state whether your abstract should be considered for a poster, presentation, or both. Also indicate if you would like your paper to be considered for a poster presentation if it is not selected for a paper presentation. Submissions will receive a response by Friday, December 13, 2019.
