The 17th annual conference of the North American Serials Interest Group (NASIG), Transforming Serials: The Revolution Continues, will be held at the College of William and Mary in Williamsburg, Virginia, June 20-23, 2002. William and Mary is the second oldest college in the United States and is located in the colonial capital of Virginia. A small, state-assisted institution with 7,500 students, the college has received consistently high rankings in U.S. News & World Report's surveys and in other guidebooks that rank colleges and universities. Although the school is primarily liberal arts in focus, it also has a well-respected law school, business school, and the Virginia Institute of Marine Science to round out its academic offerings.
The College rests on 1200 acres, part of which contains the "Old Campus" which has been restored to 18th-Century appearance, and adjoins historic Colonial Williamsburg, a living history museum dedicated to late 1700 Virginia life. Former Chief Justice Warren Burger once said of William and Mary, "Harvard is a pretty good school, too, but you've got to go a long way to find a school as good as this one." Williamsburg and the College of William & Mary are wonderful places. Start planning now to attend this conference for a revolutionary experience.
