International Animal Liberation Conference, Syracuse University

The Syracuse Animal Rights Organization is pleased to announce the First Annual Student Association Conference on April 23-25, 2004 on the Syracuse University Campus. This two-day conference will feature guest speakers, panel discussions and presentations of papers by students--graduate and undergraduate. The conference is multi-disciplinary and encourages students from any course of study to submit proposals. Since presentations are limited to graduate and undergraduate students, the CALA Student Conference is an ideal place for a first conference presentation in an academic setting, especially for undergraduate students moving into graduate work. Hosted by The Student Environmental Action Coalition, Syracuse Animal Rights Organization, and The Center on Animal Liberation Affairs Sponsored by: www.getvegan.com, My Body Is My Temple, Cleveland Chapter of the American Indian Movement, Bite Back Magazine <!--break--> <img class="dada-image-center" src="http://rochester.indymedia.org/sites/default/files/migrate_dada/2007.jpg"><br>Registration On behalf of Syracuse Animal Rights Organization (SARO) and the Center on Animal Liberation Affairs (CALA), I am very honored to announce that this national event, which will unite activists and academics together and include both outstanding figures involved with social justice struggles and members of the academic community, will be brought to you FREE OF CHARGE! As this event will not be aided by grants, private donations, or financial endorsements of any kind, we will be relying upon the tireless efforts volunteered by our above sponsors. Consequently, there will be a number of chances throughout the two days -- tables will be set up off-campus at the show on Friday night and at the dinner on Saturday -- to make a donation to Syracuse Animal Rights Organization, and I do ask that you consider making a donation if possible to this worthy cause, of: $10.00, if you are attending the conference (FREE FOR ALL) At this time, we are not asking donations of invited speakers because we are simply honored to host you. Again, please note, per university policy these are not charges for conference admission. Additionally, because SARO and CALA presently lack non-profit tax status, I am writing to ask that any and all donations be provided either in cash, or as a personal check addressed directly to me. Deadline: April 1, 2004 Fee: At this time, there is no fee to register. Subject to change. Accommodations: Reservations are the responsibility of all attendees. Remember to make reservations early for the best rates.
