Hello again, OPC Interest Group Members,
This email serves as the final reminder of the upcoming Friday, October 3 submission deadline for all papers and panels. I'm including our unit's submission guidelines below, and want to especially emphasize the importance of using the submission forms found on the CSCA website (www.csca-net.org).
Please let me know if you have any questions as you prepare your submissions.
Best,
Nici
