Galveston Island is located about 50 miles southeast of Houston along the Texas gulf coast. The island has a romantic history, Victorian architecture, 32 miles of beaches, and a variety of attractions. The climate is temperate with a mean temperature of 56 degrees in February. The meeting will be held at the San Luis Hotel, where all rooms have a private balcony and a view of the Gulf of Mexico.
Authors wishing to present a paper in Galveston should submit a camera-ready abstract on the enclosed form to the Technical Program Co-chairman, Donald G. Baird, before September 13, 1996. A copy of the abstract should also be sent to the appropriate symposium organizer. The planned symposia and their organizers follow:

In order to make the Rheology Bulletin a more effective vehicle of communication, the Executive Committee of the Society has charged the Bulletin Editor with the task of broadening the nature and scope of the contents of the Bulletin. Initially, it is planned to include "how to" articles dealing with the practical aspects of rheology. Such articles would be complemented by a question and answer column where short technical questions could be addressed. In addition, it is proposed to print educational articles describing the experience of members in introducing rheology into the classroom, whether in fluid mechanics/transport phenomena courses or in undergraduate laboratory subjects. Book reviews will also be printed.
The Bulletin Editor (gupta@cemr.wvu.edu) invites potential contributors to contact him with specific topics and ideas. He also invites members to comment on the proposed changes in the Bulletin and to suggest other appropriate enhancements.
The Society now has its own home page on the World Wide Web due mainly to the efforts of Professor Albert Co. You are invited to sample what is available at http://www.umecheme.maine.edu/sor/
The home page of the American Institute of Physics is located at http://www.aip.org/
Your comments and suggestions are welcome. These may be sent to Albert (albertco@umecheme.maine.edu) or to Kurt Wissbrun (kfw@aip.org), the Society President.
The Society of Rheology is offering grants to support the cost of public transportation to the International Congress on Rheology to any second or third year graduate student who is a member of the Society as of July 1, 1996, and whose faculty advisor is also a member as of that date. Each grant will be a maximum of $350, available on a first-come, first-served basis, until available funds are exhausted. To apply, the student should write a letter requesting the grant. The student’s faculty advisor should add a letter of support, certifying that both the advisor and the student are members of The Society of Rheology, and that the student is a second or third year graduate student. Only one application per faculty advisor will be accepted. The letters from the student and the advisor should be mailed in the same envelope before July 1, 1996 to:
