[SFRA-L] 2012 SFRA Conference in Detroit: March Update

[Berman, Steven D]

SFRA Conference 2012, Detroit, Michigan June 28-July 1, 2012 

                        March Update

I want to begin this update by introducing our seventh featured guest: Professor Melissa Littlefield from the University of Illinois. Her most recent book is The Lying Brain: Lie Detection in Science and Science Fiction (University of Michigan Press, 2011). Check out her list of publications at the University of Illinois faculty website (under People). Melissa is very much looking forward to being a part of the 2012 SFRA conference.

The item that needs to be addressed in this update is the change in the hotel menu. Two of the meals that I posted as choices on the SFRA conference website are being pulled from the Courtyard menu. The vegetarian polenta dish and the roasted pork loin will not be available for the conference. I have changed the menu choices on the conference website. However, if you have already registered for the conference and selected one of these canceled meals for the banquet, I will contact you via e-mail and let you know. You can just let me know your replacement item via e-mail. No need to go back to the registration form. The three choices left are Vegetarian Pasta, Maple Cured Salmon, and Michigan Cherry Chicken. 

Look for further information in the April website, including an update of the web stats. 

The conference will begin in 115 days.
