If you submitted a paper or proposal, you will receive a copy of the registration form via regular mail in the next few weeks. Before anyone asks, we are NO LONGER accepting papers or panel proposals, unless they specifically address bisexuality and/or the lives of people of color (areas which have been underrepresented at past LesBiGay Studies conferences).
