descendants in the settlement and economic development of the 
eighteenth century frontier.
(c)     Contributions to the establishment of political, religious, 
and educational philosophy and institutions.
(d)     Comparative approaches to the study of the Scotch-Irish 
experience (for example, how they interacted with other ethnic 
groups).
(e)     Eighteenth century Ulster immigration to parts of North 
America other than the Thirteen Colonies, its scale and measure of 
success.
(f)     Original papers on other Scotch-Irish topics will also be 
considered for inclusion.

The symposium will be preceded by a reception and welcome dinner at 
the Ramada Hotel on the evening of Friday, June 29, 2007.
