That was one of the responses to yesterday's column about the upcoming NRLC convention in Nashville, Tennessee. The answer to this inquiry is, of course, yes, but hurry Whether the pro-lifer lives half-way around the world or a half-hour away from Nashville, there is still time to register for all, or part, of the three-day educational fest. And, in response to another inquiry, you can read the entire schedule online at www.nrlc.org/convention/Schedule20 06.html. One part of the convention--the prelude, if you will--that you really want to take advantage of is the annual meeting of the Association for Interdisciplinary Research in Values and Social Change. A long title for a very accessible organization, its annual meeting takes place at 8:00 pm June 21--the night before the convention begins. Founded in 1986, the Association is a professional organization for pro-life researchers and educators which offers a forum for an exchange of information from a wide range of scientific and social science disciplines. Over these past twenty years, the Association has created a network of Pro-Life professionals and encouraged research and academic publications. Let me take just a minute of your time to describe briefly the three outstanding speakers you can hear. They include, Byron C. Calhoun, M.D., Vice Chairman, Obstetrics and Gynecology, West Virginia University, Charleston Branch. Dr. Calhoun will speak on, "Induced Abortion and Subsequent Preterm Delivery: Whisper of Association or Cry of Causation?" Priscilla Coleman, Ph.D., an Associate Professor, Human Development and Family Studies, Bowling Green State University, will speak next. Dr. Coleman's topic is "Relationship Problems Following Abortion." Michael New, Ph.D., is an Assistant Professor of Political Science at the University of Alabama. Dr. New will outline "The Impact of State Legislation on the Incidence of Abortion." NRLC President Wanda Franz, Ph.D., who is Professor Emerita, West Virginia University, will preside.
