ANNOUNCING THE GRADUATE STUDENT BREAKFAST AT THE ANNUAL MEETING OF THE
AMERICAN ASSOCIATION FOR THE HISTORY OF MEDICINE - Boston: May 2, 2003.

Want to meet peers and faculty in your field?  Hungry?  Looking for
something to do at 7am on Friday morning?

This year, the AAHM is sponsoring a breakfast meeting organized for and by
graduate students with the collaboration of faculty to specifically address
the needs and interests of the graduate student community in the history of
medicine.

Issues to be discussed include:

*Organization of a Student Section within AAHM

*Planning for the 1st Joint Atlantic Seminar in the History of Medicine (for
and by graduate students) this October 3-4, 2003 at Johns Hopkins

*Developing a database of contact information and general historical
interests (i.e. American, comparative, modern, medieval, etc.) for graduate
students in different cities, useful for exchanging syllabi and when
traveling for archival research, conferences, etc.

*Establishing an interest-specific cross-institutional mentoring

*Professional development: publication strategies and the job market

Thanks to the generous support of the AAHM, faculty and institutions across
the country, this breakfast is FREE to all students attending the AAHM
Annual Conference.  HOWEVER, you MUST register for this meeting as space is
limited.  You can register for the conference at www.aahmreg.org/ or by
mail-in registration form - but be sure to check the box for the grad
student breakfast in either format and note the DEADLINE IS MARCH 28.

For questions about the meeting or suggestions for the agenda, contact the
student organizers:
