If you would like to submit an organized session for the 2009 WEA conference please contact John Stoll by email: at stollj@uwgb.edu.  Sessions are one and a half hours long, and include a chair, three or four papers, and three or four discussants.  Panel discussions, in which a moderator and three or more panelists discuss a topic of current interest provide an interesting alternative format. Please click the information link below for more details on proposing a session.

The WEA posts PowerPoint slides for each accepted presentation on our website. We will do this every year in an effort to maintain an archive of the annual conference proceedings over time.

We hope to use this as a stepping stone to a WEA on-line journal of some type in the future.
