To:  SIG-11 members

A couple of you have sent me email requesting topic ideas for the 1996
conference.  I recently received a memo from Carol Sargent regarding
information collected at the '95 instructional program (courses and seminars)
which included suggested additional future topics on the course evaluation
forms.  To provide you with some topic ideas, I've filtered through Carol's
memo to collect those topics which might interest SIG-11 members and listed
them below.  

Please remember that Instructional Course, Special Session, and Morning
Session proposals are due this Friday, Sept. 22nd.  Hope this list is helpful.
