Dear Fellow ASEC members,

We look forward to seeing many of you at our annual business meeting on Saturday November 19 at 8 AM in Washington Room 5 at the Marriott Hotel in Washington, DC.  In anticipation of the Association for Slavic, East European, and Eurasian Studies (ASEEES) convention, we have compiled a list of panels that may be of interest to our members.  Although far from complete (and subject to schedule changes), the list may be helpful.
