Subject:  Language in the School Curriculum

The Language in the School Curriculum Advisory Committee of the LSA is
trying to update and expand a compendium of effort by linguists
working with schools.

If you are involved with projects involving language in the school
curriculum, we'd like to hear about them.  Please send a brief (no
longer than 500 words) report of your project to Ed Battistella
(battiste at sou.edu) with the header LISC Compendium. Please include
your name, affiliation and contact information and a descriptive title
of your report.

It would be helpful to receive any updates by Oct. 1, 2004.

Thanks.
