    The Michigan Academy

    The Michigan Academy of Science, Arts, & Letters is dedicated to scholarly
    exchange through annual meetings and a quarterly journal of outstanding
    papers, the Michigan Academician.

    At the annual meetings of the Michigan Academy, papers are presented in

    interdisciplinary areas. Held on the campus of a different Michigan
    college or university each year in late winter/early spring, the meetings

    social events. In 2002, the meetings will be held at Central Michigan
