Be sure to include names, institutions, addresses, and e-mail addresses of all presenters. Abstracts for poster sessions will not be printed in the meeting program. A list of exhibitors with contact information and brief abstracts will be prepared and available at the Poster Session.

The absolute deadline set by MAA is December 9, 2003, but applicants to this session are requested to send abstracts by November 15. Space is limited, and there is no guarantee that all suitable submissions can be accommodated. Applicants who submit abstracts on or before November 15 will be notified very soon after the submission about the status of their application. This will be done to allow appropriate time for travel plans.

Presenters may wish to bring 25-50 copies of more detailed accounts to hand out to interested parties. Presenters may also wish to bring blank stick-on mailing labels and ask those interested in more materials to sign up on the mailing labels.

Equipment provided: Tables (6'x18") are provided in the room setup. The Meetings and Conferences Department of the AMS will supply self-standing table top posters which are 48" wide and 36" high and are trifold. Exhibitors should have material prepared in advance. The room will be open for setup one hour in advance of the scheduled session. Materials must be removed immediately after the close of the session. "Spray Mount," which can be used to paste photos, paper, etc. to the poster, will be available.

Other equipment: Any equipment (computers, display devices, etc) other than tables and table-top posters must be provided by exhibitors. Power strips may be available if arrangements are made in advance by indicating the need for electrical connections when the abstract is submitted.
