We will begin accepting working papers at that time. Watch this site for more information including program details, travel and hotel recommendations, and more!

Like our previous symposiums, we will call for scholars and graduate students to submit working papers on state legislative oversight and related topics to be read and reviewed by practitioners. We will also have roundtable discussions focused on overcoming barriers and leveraging opportunities for collaboration between scholars and practitioners. And, of course, there will be opportunities to get to know each other better in social outings, a reception, and more!

We will also recognize our 2025 Oversight Leader at the symposium. The SOA Oversight Leaders designation recognizes individual state legislators and committees whose work contributes to the practice of high-quality oversight and stands as an example for others to follow. Nominations are open now!
