END-OF-LIFE OPTIONS DISCUSSED

A one-day conference, "Quality of Life at the End of Life," will be held March 24, 9 a.m.-4:30 p.m., at the Donaldson Brown Hotel and Conference Center. The Virginia Tech Choices and Challenges forum will address the issues of health-care options at the end of life, including the issue of physician-assisted suicide, the role of government in health care rationing, and how much control individuals should have in deciding their own care and treatment.

Registration is not required but is recommended. Register for child care by March 14.
