recently invited interested persons to present papers, media produc-
tions, or panels at an interdisciplinary, multicultural conference en-
titled Suspect Terrain: Surveying the Women's West, which will be held

proposals from established scholars, graduate students, and indepen-
dent researchers concerning labor/leisure, law, leadership and politics,

ous agencies and may be able to subsidize participants. They expect to
publish a volume and produce a video based on the conference. Submit
