Topic: Seeking Comments on APSA Annual Meeting Review Committee Report
Printer-Friendly Page
Dear APSA Members,
 
The Annual Meeting Review Committee has drafted its report and shared it with the APSA Council. Now we are asking you for your reactions and suggestions. The Committee will consider all of the reactions that it receives, and make its final recommendations to the APSA Council at its September meeting.
 
In our work, the Committee considered two surveys, one of attendees at the 2006 Annual Meeting, and one of non-attendees at the 2006 Annual Meeting. We also solicited comments from members and received over 300 comments. So the Committee has striven to receive as much advice from our members as possible.
 
You can now read our findings and recommendations here. For additional background materials, see the committee webpage at www.apsanet.org/section_739.cfm.
 
If you would like to participate now by sending us comments, you are welcome to post public comments here on this open discussion board, or you can send them directly to amreview@apsanet.org.
 
We look forward to hearing from you.
 
APSA Annual Meeting Review Committee

Recommendation #19 on carbon neutrality could be fleshed out. For example, the May 2007 issue of "Backpacker" magazine (p. 37) provides two sites (nativeenergy.com and terrapass.com) that have carbon calculators to estimate single-trip footprints. A round-trip flight between Philadelphia and Salt Lake City, for example, costs $15. How would the APSA staff implement such a voluntary option? One possibility would be a surcharge to our convention registration fee, based on distance and mode of transit. Would this then be passed on to our institutions as a part of our travel expenses?
