The proposal selection process for the 127th annual meeting in New Orleans, January 3–6, 2013, was the most competitive in AHA history. The Program Committee could accept only 42 percent of submissions, and worked hard to craft a program that will represent the breadth and diversity of the field, stimulate conversation across specialties, and offer sessions of interest to all historians.

Notifications of the committee’s decisions were e-mailed to all session organizers on April 27, 2012. If you are a session organizer and have not heard from the Program Committee, please contact aha@historians.org. If you are a panelist, please contact the session organizer.
