AECT has to serve its membership. 


At the sametime, as an organization we must maintain quality standards. As
a result, there will be some individuals, maybe many, whose paper(s) are
not accepted for presentation--research oriented or not. 

I doubt if there is anyone who has published more than a few papers who has
not received a rejection. Rather than call for limitations, those
individuals with rejections need to determine how to improve their
proposals to meet the standards of the association.

I have heard that current limitations were started in part by those who did
not have a paper accepted and could not receive support to attend. That's
unfortunate, but there are many of us who have paid are own way many times
to present papers when our organization would not pay for travel. If one is
serious about attending AECT, they should attend. 

The issue must be one of quality. If a paper is not of sufficient quality,
it should not be accepted even if there are slots available regardless of
the presenters circumstances.
