<DIV>See you there,</DIV>

<BLOCKQUOTE cite type="cite"><FONT face=Arial>The 2002 meeting of the Siouan
and Caddoan Languages Conference will be held at Black Hills State
University, in Spearfish, South Dakota, on Friday and Saturday, May 31 and
June 1. Those wishing to present papers should submit a title and
brief abstract to the convener, Dick Carter, by May 25. (This would be
best accomplished by sending the abstract as an e-mail attachment
to </FONT><A href="mailto:RichardCarter@bhsu.edu"><FONT
face=Arial>RichardCarter@bhsu.edu</FONT></A><FONT face=Arial>.) This
year we will have a "parasession" on Friday morning devoted to papers that
test contemporary ideas in linguistic theory against data from Siouan or
Caddoan languages -- although papers which incorporate additional data from
other language families will also be welcome. Other sessions will
welcome papers on<I><B> any</B></I> topic concerning Siouan or Caddoan
languages.</FONT></BLOCKQUOTE>

<BLOCKQUOTE cite type="cite"><FONT face=Arial>Rooms for conference
participants have been reserved at Pangborn Hall, a university
dormitory. Those planning to attend the conference and reside in the
dormitory should inform the convener by e-mail. Our rooms will
be on the first floor. Room costs will be $10.80 per night for
double occupancy, $21.60 per night for single occupancy, with an additional
8% in tax. Persons residing on campus are also charged a facilities
use fee of $7.50, plus 6% tax. There will also be a nominal
registration fee for all participants, to cover the cost of coffee-break
refreshments. Those who find dormitory living too Spartan may make
their own arrangements at one of the many motels. The following would
be good choices:</FONT></BLOCKQUOTE>

<BLOCKQUOTE cite type="cite"><FONT face=Arial>Spearfish is located at the
northern end of the beautiful Black Hills, and weather at the end of May is
ordinarily delightful. For those planning to drive, Spearfish is
located on Interstate Hwy. 90 about 45 miles north of Rapid City, South
Dakota. Those traveling by air will fly to Rapid City Regional
Airport, at which point it would be easiest to rent a car for the (roughly)
60 mile trip to Spearfish. There is much to see in the area: the drive
through Spearfish Canyon, a federally designated "Scenic Byway", is
especially fine in late spring. For those interested, casino gambling
is available in the historic town of Deadwood, 17 miles away. (Supply
your own money. And yes, Kevin Costner <I><B>does</B></I>
give you better odds than the state and national
lotteries.)</FONT></BLOCKQUOTE>

<BLOCKQUOTE cite type="cite"><FONT face=Arial>For those staying on campus:
dormitory staff will be available for check-in anytime after noon on
Thursday, May 30, and will help with checkout from 10 AM - 12 Noon on
Sunday, June 2. (Those wishing to leave on Saturday night may do so,
of course.) Those needing additional information or assistance should
contact Dick Carter at the above e-mail address. He can also be
