The Midwest Regional Meeting for Biblical Studies (MRM) continues the programming of the former Midwest Region SBL/AOS/ASOR Meeting. The meeting is scheduled for March 14–16 (Friday–Sunday), 2025, at Saint Mary's College, Notre Dame (South Bend), IN.  Now in its third year, the MRM is sponsored by the Chicago Society of Biblical Research (Biblical Research, Inc.), in cooperation with the Catholic Biblical Association and the Michigan Center for Early Christian Studies. It includes program units on various aspects of Hebrew Bible, New Testament, Second Temple Judaism, early Christianity, and archaeology; the Regional Spotlight session; and a book review session. See the conference website (<a href="https://chicagosbr.org/midwest-biblical-studies-regional-meeting/" style="color:inherit;text-decoration:inherit;user-select:auto;box-sizing:inherit">https://chicagosbr.org/midwest-biblical-studies-regional-meeting/</a>) for the call for papers, program descriptions, hotel information, and the program. For questions about registration, please contact <a href="mailto:MidwestRegionalReg@gmail.com" style="color:inherit;text-decoration:inherit;user-select:auto;box-sizing:inherit">MidwestRegionalReg@gmail.com</a>. The Student Religious Studies Conference (SRSC), which includes papers by undergraduate and graduate students (for the latter, especially master's students or doctoral students presenting for the first time), will meet during the day on Friday, March 14, as part of the Midwest Regional Meeting. Details for the SRSC will also be posted on the MRM website (see link above). There is no requirement of membership in CSBR, CBA, or any other academic society for participation in the MRM or SRSC. Registrations may be paid by credit card, debit card, or ACH bank draft. Payments by card, whether credit or debit, are preferable, as we had difficulty in 2023 processing ACH payments from certain banks. Registrations are nonrefundable after March 1, 2025. Also, please note that any donation added during the registration process goes to Zeffy, not the Midwest Regional Meeting, and is completely optional. Zeffy does not charge the Midwest Regional Meeting any fees of any sort for the registration module, and their own funding comes through donations.  When entering your registration information, please do not type personal names in all-caps or abbreviate institutional names. Information printed on conference name tags is drawn directly from your registration record.
