Auburn University is pleased to announce a call for papers for the annual Phi Alpha Theta (PAT) Alabama Regional Meeting, to be held April 5, 2014.The Alabama Regional Meeting provides undergraduate and graduate students of history an excellent opportunity to present their research in a supportive and professional environment.

The AU PAT Organizing Committee encourages all regional chapter advisors to disseminate the attached call for papers to both undergraduate and graduate students. Proposalsare not confined to any specific region or time period and may include – but are not confined to – topics of race, gender, culture, religion, identity, and the history of technology. Proposals may concern preliminary findings for research being conducted during Spring Term 2014 as well as research completed in earlier terms. Non-members of Phi Alpha Theta are also encouraged to submit proposals.

Individual paper proposals should include an abstract of the presentation of no more than 250 words. Students should submit their proposals to their Phi Alpha Theta chapter advisor by February 15, 2014. Faculty advisors are then requested to forward the proposals electronically (in MS Word format) to Jacob Clawson, jsc0017@tigermail.auburn.edu.

While student papers will be accepted based on the submitted abstract, the final paper and additional registration fee of $15 (checks made payable to the order to Phi Alpha Theta) should be sent to Jacob Clawson at the address listed above at least two weeks before the conference, i.e., March 22, 2014.
