1997 Annual Meeting Sets New Attendance Record
The 1997 Annual Meeting of the PAA, held at the Grand
Hyatt in Washington, DC, March 27- 29, was by most indicators a smashing
success despite its coincidence with the Easter weekend. Registration at
the meeting topped 1,600. Attendance at the 140 regular paper sessions
was also high. Washington also provided excellent weather and a beautiful
display of cherry blossoms for PAA attendees who were able to take the
time to leave the hotel. If you enjoyed the 1997 meetings, you will be
pleased to hear that PAA will again be meeting at the Grand Hyatt Washington
in the year 2001, March 29-31.
