Letter from the Chairs Faculty, Students, and community— Welcome everyone to another wonderful year for the Life, the Universe, & Everything Symposium. Now in our 27th year, we are excited to be around and looking forward to the future, with a great nod of thanks to our past. This year we’ve really had to look back to our roots, finding the core of what LTU&E truly stands for, and realizing the great debt that we owe to our founders—the amazing group of students and faculty who got LTU&E started. While I suspect that many of them would be surprised at how we have changed over the years—let alone lasting this long—I hope they are proud of what we are. LTU&E is still a wonderful forum of thought, a vast gathering of great ideas and interests, bringing together successful professionals and struggling beginners alike to expand their knowledge of not only the world around them, but also how it could be and how to share that idea. Through the study of science fiction and fantasy, we really do connect with life, the universe, and everything. In the annual struggle to prepare for the symposium, we ran across a great number of unexpected obstacles, driving us to great lengths and calling upon all our resources, even so far as to contact members from those early LTU&E committees for assistance. Fortunately, we’ve been blessed with an amazing committee this year as well. Each of them has put in what I would have believed to be inhumane amounts of effort to help this 2009 symposium come together. With thanks to our sponsorship from the department of Theater and Media Arts in the college of Fine Arts and Communications here at Brigham Young University, and to all those involved in the many aspects of this event from production to participation, we wish you welcome and hope you enjoy this 27th edition of Life, the Uni- verse, & Everything.

First, remember that the authors and artists are only human. Just because they write fantastic books or draw fabulous pictures doesn’t mean they are ready to be on stage at any moment. An author or artist may have just had a lousy night or be suffering from something the symposium committee fed them at lunch. Don’t take it personally if they don’t want to talk to you right then. Also, don’t try to dazzle them with your latest story idea or pet project. Most authors are paid to edit material; don’t expect them to do it for free.
