COMSEP listserv is a moderated e-mail list that sends out messages to all of the
pediatrics clerkship directors (delegates to COMSEP), alternative delegates, and
associate members. The list is moderated to ensure that there is no spam or commercial
product advertised, other than that developed by our own members. To send a message
to the COMSEP listserv, simply address the message to rcf-list@comsep.org.
The messages are usually moderated within 12-24 hours and posted. Messages are
also archived. | | |

URGENT! The COMSEP meeting will be moved out of
the Omni Hotel due to the damage to the hotel after
the recent tornado that hit downtown Atlanta. We
are finalizing plans with an alternative hotel in
the area; fortunately our options are good and our
projected hotel is a very upscale property. Please
pay attention to listserv messages or direct e-mails
from Lisa Elliott or me. Of course, if you have
urgent questions please contact Lisa at lelliott@abpeds.org or
David at dlevine@msm.edu.
We will update everyone as progress is made. Also,
because of the move and size of the group (this
will be the largest group we have ever had) we are
also forced to close registration for anyone who
has not yet sent in an application. We are confident
that this will be an outstanding meeting and look
forward to hosting you in Atlanta! |
