N.J. History Day Volunteers Needed for March 8, 2008

New Jersey History Day, National History Day's local contest, is a highly regarded and academically challenging non-profit program. The program's goal is to promote the study of history by engaging students and teachers in the excitement of historical inquiry and creative presentation in the form of papers, documentaries, performances, exhibits or websites.  The New Jersey History Day State Contest will be held on Saturday, May 3, 2008. 

However, this year there will be two regional contests.  The Northern Region, at Seton Hall University will be held on March 8, 2008 and the Southern Region, at Rider University will be held on April 12, 2008.  The program would greatly appreciate your willingness to give your time and share your expertise as a judge. To help at Seton Hall University please contact historydept@shu.edu, to help at Rider University please contact osborne@rider.edu, and to help at William Paterson University please contact njhistoryday@wpunj.edu.

Deadline for submitting articles for the Fall edition of OURSTORY is August 15, 2008.
