Signaling" (four presentations). Despite the cancellation of one poster presentation, our poster session actually had more p osters (fifteen) than indicated by the published abstracts. Perhaps this phenomenon was due to the irresistible lure of the poster party, which included door prizes ranging from cheese straws to coffee mugs; the chair notes that further research is needed to determine the cause of this interesting phenomenon. The outstanding quality of the platform and poster presentations made it extremely difficult for the judges to select a single winner in the two sponsored categories. The Outstanding Graduate Student Presentation award was won by Ms Tricia M. Coleman (University of Southern Mississippi); this award was accompanied by a fifty dollar prize provided by Fisher Scientific (courtesy of Ms Susie Emfinger).
