Dear EWGLA members I will serve as the SOLA Cluster chair for the INFORMS 2017 Annual Meeting in Houston (http://meetings2.informs.org/wordpress/houston2017/). If you are planning to organize a SOLA sponsored session, please let me know with your tentative session title by April 13, then I can set up your session in the system. In addition, if your are planning to organize a practice-oriented session or a joint session between two INFORMS communities, please let me know. FYI, the deadline for abstract submission is May 2nd. I am waiting for your reply!
