Message from your moderator: This email message uses the new format
that the listserv membership voted for early in the fall. Email
messages from the listserv will be brief announcements. For further
details, follow the link listed. Please let me know if you
experience any difficulties with the new format.
Also, send me items to post to the list that would be of interest to Society
members: position announcements, postdoctoral announcements, grant
and funding opportunities, conference announcements, calls for
papers, and brief queries on research topics.
Thanks!

1. Student Bulletin Board
Apparently there is a new sensation sweeping around the globe (well,
ISHPSSB student members anyway), providing a place for folks to meet
(virtually, that is). And it is the ISHPSSB Student Bulletin Board.
Officially it's "a forum for students affiliated with the ISHPSSB to
post announcements and have discussions." In fact, unofficially
that's what it is as well.
It's a fairly straightforward concept. If you have something that
you think students in ISHPSSB should know about, say, conferences,
funding, or perhaps even the possibility of a job, then post it on
the Bulletin Board
(<http://athena.english.vt.edu/cgi-bin/netforum/ish/a/1>http://athena.english.vt.edu/cgi-bin/netforum/ish/a/1
or you can get to it via the ISHPSSB homepage
<http://server.phil.vt.edu/ishpssb/>http://server.phil.vt.edu/ishpssb/).
Alternatively, if there's something you want to find out about, then
ask away.
Yours,
Terry Sullivan
Student member of the ISHPSSB Council
