[Lorelei Carlson]

* 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.  *
The deadline for application submittal is April 2, 2012.* 
Applications will still be accepted after this date but fellowships will 
only be awarded to students submitting applications by the April 2 
deadline.  *
All students will be notified by April 30, 2012 of acceptance.*
