  • Mesaʼs 51St Annual Meeting
    PRELIMINARY PROGRAM VER. 10-12-17 Jake McGuire Destination DC MESAʼs 51st Annual Meeting Washington DC November 18-21 We return to DC for MESA’s 51st annual meeting at the Washington Marriott Wardman Park Hotel where we have met every three years since 1999. The hotel is located in a lovely residential area near the National Zoo, but a nearby stop on the metro red line makes all parts of DC easily accessible. The program of 230+ sessions (see pages 12-51) spread over four days will offer a smorgasbord to whet the appetite of any Middle East studies aficionado. MESA’s affiliate groups meet mostly on Saturday, November 18 (see pages 10-11) and the first program session begins that day at 5:30pm. Panels run all day Sunday and Monday and end at 3pm on Tuesday. The book bazaar will be open Sunday and Monday from 9am to 6pm and on Tuesday from 8am to 12pm (see pages 8-9). MESAʼs ever-popular FilmFest (see the teaser on pages 6-7) begins screenings on Saturday morning and runs through Tuesday until around 2pm. The MESA Presidential Address & Awards will be held Sunday evening from 6pm to 7:30pm, and the MESA Members Meeting on Monday evening from 6pm to 8:00pm. As you will see, it’s business as usual, except of course for a new administration that is determined to ban nationals of six Muslim majority countries from traveling to the US, and MESA having joined a lawsuit against the ban that is making its way to the US Supreme Court in October.

Please review the information carefully and speak with your school counselor or gifted education coordinator to ensure that you meet all division and state deadlines. Most of the deadlines established by the Virginia Department of Education (VDOE) are for school division submissions to the VDOE. School divisions typically set their deadlines several weeks or months prior to the VDOE deadline. All parts of the application are available at the Virginia Department of Education’s Website. The application process is a joint effort involving the student, his/her parent or legal guardian, the local school, the school division or the private school region, and the VDOE. This document contains general program information about the Summer Residential Governor's Schools. The application contains sections that the student must complete, and sections to be completed by teachers and the school counselor. Teachers and school counselors may access the forms they need from the same Web site noted above. This year each SRGS program has its own application. Please be sure you are completing the appropriate application form. Students applying to the Visual and Performing Arts program must be selected by their school division or private school to attend the statewide adjudication process in January.
