ABOUT THE CONFERENCE
The Arctic Conference is an annual gathering of scholars and students
sharing a common interest in the history of human experience in the
arctic and subarctic. Founded by archaeologists and revolving around
issues of human prehistory, this conference commonly also draws scholars
working in the related dimensions of anthropology and Quaternary
science. The purpose of this meeting is to share research and
experiences and to network with colleagues in a smaller and more
comfortable venue than the typical larger meeting format.
In order to make this meeting affordable, registration fees are limited
to $20 for students and $35 for professionals (payable in advance or at
the door). These fees cover a modest conference venue, program, and
refreshments. Unfortunately, funds are not available to assist with
travel, meals, or lodging. (Professional registration fees have been
raised to accommodate high costs of the conference room).
TO REGISTER:
Although the registration deadline for the Arctic Conference, required
sending an 150 word abstract to Ben Fitzhugh (fitzhugh [at] u.washington.edu)
by 1 October, late submissions may be accepted until the sessions are
filled.
