APSA 2008 Panels

Seth Masket (U. Denver) and Jennifer Victor (Pitt) organized the POP panels for APSA 2008. Through co-sponsorship with other sections and one specially awarded THEME PANEL, POP will be represented at 20 panels at APSA 2008 in Boston. This includes two roundtables listed first below, and a special theme panel on inequality. POP is also hosting three poster sessions that are listed at the end of this file. We still experience low acceptance rates for papers and panels because the requests to present papers exceed supply. Please attend POP panels and this will help increase our allocation in the future.
