[NMScience] Southwest Junior Science and Humanities Symposium

[Linda C Schaffer]

Dear Principals, Teachers, and Students:

It is with great pleasure that I invite you to attend the 
Southwest Junior Science and Humanities Symposium to be 
held March 26-30, 2009 at the MCM Eleganté Hotel in 
Albuquerque, NM.  If you have students who have completed 
scientific research, they may apply to present their work 
at the symposium. The meeting provides an opportunity for 
outstanding students to share their research and compete 
for scholarships. The top five symposium winners are 
invited to go on to the 46th National Junior Science and 
Humanities Symposium which is to be held in Colorado 
Springs, CO April 30-May 3, 2009. At the nationals, two 
students will participate in the paper competition and one 
in the poster competition.

If your students would like to attend, please contact me 
or go to our website at http://www.unm.edu/~jshs/ for more 
information about the Symposium.  I am also attaching the 
application materials to speed up the process.  All work 
may be submitted electronically to tctrujil at unm.edu. We 
ask that your students submit Abstracts along with 
Literature review, Hypothesis and Methods and Materials by 
Feb. 23, 2009.  Permission slips are within the 
application packet and they must also be turned in by Feb. 
23, 2009.  Completed papers with results and conclusion 
should be turned in by March 4, 2009. Papers will be 
reviewed and presenters for the symposium will be selected 
by March 6, 2009.  As soon as the presenters are 
determined, the teacher and school will be contacted.

If you need further information regard the Southwest 
Junior Science and Humanities Symposium, please contact me
