"Communication and Ecology at (Former) Nuclear Weapons Sites: A Roundtable Discussion" was held at the 1999 Western States Communication Association Conference in Vancouver, BC. During this session, a variety of nuclear weapons complex issues were discussed by communication scholars from across the country, including academic projects currently underway that pertain to various U.S. nuclear weapons production and/or disposal sites. Participants also discussed ways to encourage collaboration and dialogue among academic researchers and others across the U.S. nuclear weapons complex.
       The Communication and Nuclear Weapons Research Group was created in response to the roundtable discussion. The purpose of this electronic discussion group is to enhance dialogue among communication scholars and other interested parties who are involved in studying nuclear weapons policy, technology, and institutions, particularly the U.S. nuclear weapons production complex. To join the discussion, address an e-mail message to: listserv@listserv.uc.edu, and place the following command in the body of the message: SUBSCRIBE UC-CNWRG First MI Last.
       Discussions concerning potential collaborative research projects will continue at the Summer 1999 Conference on Communication and the Environment in Flagstaff, AZ and at the 1999 National Communication Association Conference in Chicago, IL.
