    The 1999 conference for the Administrative Sciences Association of
    Canada will be held in Saint John, New Brunswick, 12-15 June 1999.
    Conference details can be viewed at www.unb.ca/asac99.
    The Management Education division requests and encourages you to submit
    papers in keeping with the division mandate, in addition to papers in
    keeping with the conference theme. With the context of the conference
    theme in mind, the division is planning two special sessions.
    For the first theme, we invite you to submit proposals on the effect of
    electronic commerce on the structure and delivery of undergraduate
    finance majors. This could include, but is not limited to, degree
    requirements and syllabus revisions to course structures. Issues such
    as what technologies are now mandatory for finance students and how are
    students coping with the changes might be addressed. Reflective,
    descriptive, and quantitative papers are welcome.
    For the second theme, we invite papers on current comparative trends in
    professor salaries and barriers to mobility. The thrust of the papers
    should reflect the impact of the digital frontier on both the duties and
    mobility of professors. We also welcome applications for panelists for
    a division discussion on the competitiveness of Canadian faculty
    Salaries.
