Student Travel Awards: The 2007 ASL Annual Meeting, 2007 ASL European 
Summer Meeting, and other ASL or ASL-Sponsored Meetings

The ASL will make available modest travel awards to graduate students in
logic and (for the European Summer Meeting only) to recent Ph.D.'s so that
they may attend the 2007 ASL Annual Meeting in Gainesville, Florida, or
the 2007 ASL European Summer Meeting in WrocLaw, Poland; see below for
information about these meetings. To be considered for a Travel Award,
please (1) send a letter of application, and (2) ask your thesis
supervisor to send a brief recommendation letter. The application letter
should be brief (preferably one page) and should include: (1) your name;  
(2) your home institution; (3) your thesis supervisor's name; (4) a
one-paragraph description of your studies and work in logic, and, in the
case of an ASL student member application to attend an ASL or
ASL-sponsored meeting other than the Annual Meeting or European Summer
Meeting, a paragraph indicating why it is important to attend the meeting;  
(5) your estimate of the travel expenses you will incur; (6) (for citizens
or residents of the USA) citizenship or visa status; and (7) (voluntary)  
indication of your gender and minority status. Women and members of
minority groups are strongly encouraged to apply. In addition to funds
provided by the ASL, the program of travel grants to the ASL Annual
Meeting and the European Summer Meeting is supported by a grant from the
US National Science Foundation; NSF funds may be awarded only to students
at USA universities and to citizens and permanent residents of the USA.  
Air travel paid for using NSF funds must be on a US flag carrier.  
Application by email is encouraged; put "ASL travel application'' in the
subject line of your message.

For the 2007 ASL Annual Meeting, applications and recommendations should
be received before the deadline of December 22, 2006, by the Program
Chair: Mirna Dzamonja, School of Mathematics, University of East Anglia,
Norwich, UK, NR4 7TJ; Fax: +44 (0)1603 593868; email:  
M.Dzamonja@uea.ac.uk. Applications by email are preferred.
