Dear Educator:

Rochester Institute of Technology, the University of Rochester, and 
Apple Computer, Inc. are hosting MacAdemia '90 May 29 through June 1 in 
Rochester, New York.  Our theme, Visions for Education, focuses on the 
Macintosh as a fundamental technology for changing the way we view the 
process of learning.  Visions for Education allows us to explore 
education reform as we enter a new decade.

We are inviting proposals for MacAdemia '90 presentations.  
Presentations will be 45 minutes in length, and should explore some 
aspect of the uses of Macintosh computers in higher education.  
Presentations that incorporate on-line demonstrations or desk-top 
presentations are preferred.  Some hands-on sessions will be scheduled.

Proposals should be submitted on the included Presentation Proposal 
form, or alternately via electronic mail using the form's questions.  
Send proposals to:

      MacAdemia '90 Program Committee
      Taylor Hall
      University of Rochester
      Rochester, NY  14627

FAX:  (716) 461-1328

or via electronic mail to:

      macprops@cc.rochester.edu      (Internet)
      MACPROPS@UORDBV                (BITNET)
      A82                            (AppleLink)

The deadline for submission is February 16, 1990.  Incomplete forms, or 
proposals postmarked after the deadline will not be considered.  The 
program committee will notify speakers in early April.  As MacAdemia is 
a regional conference, preference will be given to proposals submitted 
by schools in Apple's North East Area.

Apple Computer, Inc. will pay reasonable travel, hotel, and conference 
registration expenses for accepted presenters.

Sincerely,

Philip A. Harriman
Chair, MacAdemia '90 Program Committee
