Greetings from the University of Michigan and the 2008 Black Graduate Conference in Psychology Planning Committee!

The 14th annual National Black Graduate Conference in Psychology will return to the University of Michigan from June 5th to 8th.  As always, this year’s conference will offer an opportunity for Black graduate students in all fields of psychology to come together to present their research, gain professional development experiences, and network with other graduate students in a welcoming environment.  A host of faculty from across the nation also will participate in the conference and provide critical, but supportive feedback and share their own experiences.  The conference program will include paper and poster presentations by graduate students, workshops and panel discussions on a variety of career and professional development issues, as well as opportunities to socialize with black faculty and graduate students in psychology.

The deadline for conference presentation submissions (papers or posters) is April 15, 2008.  Submitters will be notified of conference acceptance by April 22, 2008 and will need to complete conference registration by May 5, 2008.

We look forward to seeing you in Ann Arbor in June!
