The program was also open to scholars wanting to attend, read, and comment on papers but not present.   The conference will began with a dinner on Friday March 31st, with panels taking place on Saturday, April 1. Each panel consisted of approximately 4 junior scholars, with a senior scholar serving as moderator and commenter and leading a group discussion on the papers.

Congratulations to Professor Anderson!
