Since 1920, members of CAMWS who reside in the Southern states (MO, AR, TX, LA, OK, KY, TN, MS, AL, WV, VA, NC, SC, GA, FL) have enjoyed a separate organization (with no additional dues) called the Southern Section. The primary purpose is to provide an additional meeting opportunity in the South in alternate years, when the CAMWS meeting is in the Northern states; these meetings are held in the fall, generally in October. In addition, the Southern Section works closely with the officers of CAMWS to promote the study of Classics in the states of the Southern Section, including strengthening of ties between schools and colleges, and donation of funds for scholarships and government advocacy. A group membership is also maintained in the Southern Humanities Council.
The 88th anniversary meeting of the Southern Section of CAMWS will take place November 13-15, 2008, in Asheville, North Carolina, at the invitation of the University of North Carolina at Asheville. The Call for Papers is now available online.
For further information on the activities of the Southern Section, contact T. Davina McClain (mcclaind@nsula.edu), the Secretary-Treasurer.
