ADS Sessions at MLA 2004

[Martinez-Gibson, Elizabeth A.]

Michael,
 
I am working on a project that deals with the acquisiton of ser and estar. The test I gave the students tests to see if students understand certain concepts in English.Is this something you might be interested in for the ADS session? If so, I can get you an abstract by Wednesday the latest.

Subject: ADS Sessions at MLA 2004



	Dear Colleagues,
	
	I am pleased to announce that one of the ADS sessions at this year's MLA convention will consist of papers in memory of James Sledd.  I have in hand another excellent submission titled "English, Spanish, and the New Nativism," but we are still two papers short to complete our program.  If any of you are interested in pursuing the subject of that paper, or anything remotely related, or, I guess, anything at all, please, please submit an abstract to me as soon as possible.  MLA deadlines are strict, and I really must have everything sent to them by the end of the month.  Please remember that, in order to particpate in the MLA program, one must be registered as an MLA member by April 1.
	
	Feel free to pass this call along to colleagues (including graduate students) who may not be on this list.
	
	Thanks so much!
	
	Michael
