We Still Live Here

[Julie Brittain]

Thanks Daryl,
I'll give that a go. I very much enjoyed your LSA presentation, by the way - I was the person who asked in question period how you tailored your graduate work to suit your goals. I asked because we have in the past had Aboriginal graduate students and I always wonder about how we can make our program more serviceable, more attractive, to this very valuable subset of scholars. I guess we have done exactly as you were able to do - allow the students to focus on their community's language, so I was glad to hear that you found that a valuable modification. Also interesting to hear that you circumvented dealing with the local school system - for at least one of the communities (Quebec Cree) that I work with this is a major and ongoing  obstacle to the maintenance of Cree - but there are too many people to think about home schooling - it's a different situation than yours. 
Best, Julie

> Hi Monica - thanks  for this - I'd like a copy but can't see how to get a cost of $20 - the lowest I see is $258 for an institution - I couldn't see how to get the activist or home use price - maybe that's $20. I kept seeing you at the LSA, and then not seeing you so I never got a chance to say 'hello' - i think you were buzzing about a lot. Hope you enjoyed it - Sara and I had a good time.
