ASGLE has experimented with sponsoring panels at several professional meetings and conferences over the past several years, with the goals of increasing the visibility of the society and focusing more attention on the contributions of epigraphy to the study and interpretation of the ancient world. As an affiliated group of the Society of Classical Studies, ASGLE has the right to organize a panel for each annual meeting. The panel at the Society of Classical Studies annual meeting will be organized by a member of the Executive Committee.
The Executive Committee has formulated the following policy so that any member may seek ASGLE sponsorship of a panel or workshop at a suitable meeting or conference:
ASGLE members interested in organizing an ASGLE-sponsored panel or workshop at a professional meeting or conference (other than the AIA/SCS annual meeting) should contact the ASGLE Executive Committee (asglecommittee@gmail.com) no later than two months before the panel submission deadline of the meeting or conference in question. Requests should include the title of the panel/workshop, the name of its organizer(s), a brief (150 words) description of the proposed panel/workshop’s theme, and the names of possible speakers (if relevant). The ASGLE Executive Committee will review requests and determine the suitability of ASGLE sponsorship. Following approval, it is expected that the ASGLE Executive Committee will participate directly in the refereeing of submitted abstracts for the panel/workshop and be kept informed of speakers and paper topics.
