A Study Group consists of scholars working in a collaborative fashion on a narrowly defined topic, requiring active participation. Study Groups are assigned one session in the Annual Meeting for invited papers or a panel discussion. Study Groups are strongly encouraged to work toward publication of the results of their work. Study Groups normally have a six-year term which is renewable once. If a particular Study Group wishes to continue longer than this, it must take a two-year hiatus, and apply for new status as a Consultation in the third year. Responsibility for Study Groups resides with each Study Group’s steering committee, answerable to the Program Units Committee and the Executive Committee. Active Study Groups |
