CFP3 SCHOLARSHIPS


The Third Conference on Computers, Freedom and Privacy (CFP-3) will
provide a limited number of full registration scholarships for students
and other interested individuals. The conference is sponsored by ACM
SIGCOMM, SIGCAS & SIGSAC and will be held 9-12 March, 1992 at the San
Francisco Airport Marriott Hotel in Burlingame CA.

The conference will be attended by computer and library scientists, legal
scholars, government officials, information industry and other private
sector representatives, law enforcement officials, civil liberties
advocates and many others. Active participants will include Electronic
Frontier Foundation (EFF) Staff Counsel Mike Godwin, Georgetown University
Computer Science Chair Dorothy Denning, California County District
Attorney Don Ingraham, SRI's Peter G. Neumann, Autodesk's Jim Warren
(founder of InfoWorld, The West Coast Computer Faire and the CFP
conferences), New York State Police Senior Computer Crime Investigator
Donald Delaney, George Trubow of the John Marshall Law School, Rand Corp's
Willis Ware, Lance J. Hoffman of George Washington University, IBM's
Barbara Simons and CPSR's Marc Rotenberg. The conference is chaired by
Bruce Koball, a key planner of CFP 1 & 2.

These scholarships will cover the full costs of registration, including
three luncheons, two banquets, and all conference materials.
Scholarship recipients will be responsible for their own lodging and
travel expenses. Persons wishing to apply for one of these fully-paid
registrations must send a request (no more than two typewritten pages)

following information:

1. Personal Information -- Name, Address, Phone, E-Mail Address, School

providing scholarships to undergraduate and graduate students majoring
in computer or information science, journalism, law, law enforcement,
political science, and related disciplines as well as "hackers" and law
enforcement officials who could otherwise not attend the conference.

3. A specific statement saying that you will attend the entire
conference and that you understand that you are responsible for your
own transportation and lodging expenses related to the attendance.

4. A paragraph explaining why you are interested in attending the
conference and what use you expect to make of the information obtained
at the conference.

5. A paragraph explaining the need for the financial assistance and
stipulating that, without the scholarship, attendance is not possible.
