THE DEADLINE FOR HUGS 2012 APPLICATION HAS BEEN EXTENDED TO _MONDAY, 
APRIL 16, 2012 _

27th Annual Hampton University Graduate Studies (HUGS) at The Thomas 
Jefferson National Accelerator Facility
June 4 - June 22, 2012

Applications are now being accepted for HUGS 2012 to be held at 
Jefferson Lab in Newport News, Virginia.
 The deadline for fellowship consideration is April 2, 2012.

Through grant support from the United States Department of Energy (DOE), 
the 27th Annual Hampton University Graduate Studies (HUGS) Program at 
the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility (Jefferson Lab) is 
scheduled to run from Monday, June 4 to Friday, June 22, 2012.  Students 
will arrive on Sunday, June 3 and depart on Saturday, June 23.

The HUGS Program at Jefferson Lab is a summer school designed for second 
and third year experimental or theoretical nuclear/particle physics 
graduate students who have finished (or nearly finished) their 
coursework.  Students who are well into a research project are 
encouraged to apply as well.  Acceptance into the program is 
competitive.  The 2012 school will focus on experimental and theoretical 
topics in electronic scattering, QCD, strong interactions, nucleon 
structure, and nuclear interactions of high current interest.

Speakers and topics to include. . .

/Maria-Elena Boglione, University of Turin & INFN Turin, Transverse 
Momentum of Partons
Jozef Dudek, Old Dominion University/JLab, Insights into the Spectrum of 
Hadrons from Lattice QCD
Josh Erlich, College of William & Mary, Dualities and QCD
Tanja Horn, Catholic University of America, Meson Electroproduction and 
Imaging Studies
Paul Reimer, Argonne National Laboratory, Flavor Structure and 
Electroweak Interactions
Larry Weinstein, Old Dominion University, Nucleons in the Nucleus

/While attending the HUGS Program at the Jefferson Lab summer school, 
students will attend all lectures and seminars offered.  The program is 
simultaneously intensive, friendly, and casual.  The lecturers are 
internationally renowned leaders in their fields.  The students will be 
housed on site at Jefferson Lab.  There will be many opportunities to 
interact with Jefferson Lab staff, as well as the lecturers, other 
graduate students, and visitors.  Students receive insight into the type 
of physics to be performed at Jefferson Lab in the upcoming years.

Funding limitations require us to restrict the number of fellowships 
that will be awarded.  Each fellowship will cover tuition, fees, room 
and board, and reimbursement of most, if not all, of the student's 
domestic, second-class round-trip airfare or mileage, whichever is 
less.  Foreign students' transportation reimbursement will include most, 
if not all, travel to and from the point-of-entry into the United 
States.  Students will need to supply funds for incidentals, extra 
meals, etc.

To apply to HUGS 2012 at Jefferson Lab summer school, submit to the 
address below a completed application, letter of request for 
consideration of acceptance into the program, and at least one letter of 
recommendation.  Submission as such will automatically place the student 
in the fellowship competition. All students will be notified by April 
30, 2012 of acceptance.
