FL advocacy video

[David Burrous]

The Colorado Congress of Foreign Languages has produced such a video entitled
"The World Has Many Voices".  It is 7 minutes long, making it ideal to show to
PTA's, student advocacy groups, parents, students, "animal" clubs, etc.  It is
available for $8.00 (including postage).  You may order them from:  Betsy
Berwanger, Executive Secretary, CCFLT, bberwanger at vines.colostate.edu.
Thank you.
David Burrous
President-elect, CCFLT
