EllenÕs two-year term will begin this summer at the annual meeting in Denver. The Division has a full roster of sessions scheduled for our annual meeting Ñ over 30 papers will be presented during the meeting that cover a range of issues significant to the study of drugs and alcohol. Ê This yearÕs Reception will be held off-site at the Blake Street Vault, which also provides members an opportunity to explore the LoDo section of Denver. The venue is located approximately 1 mile from the Grand Hyatt Denver in close proximity to restaurants and other nightlife (see page 4 for details). Ê I encourage you to review a listing of some recently published articles by our members (page 3), which indicate high levels of scholarship and significance to the fields of sociology and drug/alcohol research. Also, see the call for papers for a special issue focusing on current perspectives on marijuana and society (page 9). Lastly, itÕs been a pleasure serving as the Chair of the Drinking and Drugs Division for the past two years. My thanks to all the D&D members and SSSP staff whoÕve contributed to an enjoyable and productive two years.
