"Although undergraduate students can present papers
in the regular sections at the TAS annual fall meetings, the main thrust
of the Collegiate Division is to provide a forum for students to present
papers in the spring, generally in [March and] April. Three meetings are

Division sponsors three regional meetings each spring at which college
students can present papers on their research." TAS
