Dates and Reminder re Macedonian Conference

[Brian Joseph]

Dear Slavicist colleagues:

The dates for the 5th Macedonian-North American Conference on Macedonian
Studies at Ohio State University next May have now been settled upon.  The
conference will run from THURSDAY MAY 1, 2003 - SUNDAY MAY 4, 2003.  Please
take note of these dates, and feel free to pass word of this conference on
to anyone else you think might be interested.

The announcement for the conference sent out earlier is repeated below, with
the dates indicated.  So far there has been a good level of interest shown
by North American colleagues (and please note the broad definition of "North
American" here -- by birth, citizenship, or current affiliation) though we
hope for more.

My thanks in advance,

--Brian
