The Midwest Symposium of Student Paleontological Research (MSSPR) Third
Annual Conference will occur March 31st to April 2nd at the University of
Kansas in Lawrence, Kansas. We want your abstracts if you are a student
(graduate or undergraduate) doing paleontology-related research at any
school in the Midwest. The abstract deadline is March 3rd, 2006 at 11:59pm.
Abstract guidelines and submission forms are at

We have an exciting conference planned, including a tour of the paleontology

discussion entitled "Evolution and Education: What can students do about
it?" featuring Dr. Bruce Lieberman, Dr. Ed Wiley, and Teresa MacDonald, a
field trip to the important Pennsylvanian-age locality of Hamilton Quarry,
and a keynote lecture by the famous vertebrate paleontologist Dr. Larry
Martin!
