The 2008 annual AGELE conference is scheduled for July 27-30, 2008 at the Boston Marriott Peabody, Peabody, MA. The conference theme is “Building Leadership for Diversity In Education: Examining the Gender intersect.” The program includes three excellent pre-conference sessions, a workshop for Title IX Coordinators, a workshop on Single Sex Education, and a workshop on investigating complaints and reports of harassment, along with plenty of fascinating concurrent sessions.

The conference participants will hear from two excellent keynote speakers. Dr. Randy Abelda from the University of Massachusetts-Boston will address her research on economic policies affecting low income families in her presentation "Is College the Ticket to Women's Equity?" Dr. Lucian Yates III from Texas A & M Prairie View will address his research on African American males in his presentation "Examining the Gender and Race Connection Through Research on African American Males."

We have obtained a group rate of  $119/night single or double for hotel rooms. This rate is available until July 1 and, subject to availability, includes the three days immediately before and after the conference if you would like to mix a little vacation time into your trip to New England. If this is your intent, book early as these extra days often fill up fast.
