CFP: SALSA 2006

[Lauren Squires]

I feel like I shouldn't be the one sending this around since we have at 
least two UT people on the listserv, but I just noticed the call is up 
(http://studentorgs.utexas.edu/salsa/CFP2006.htm; sub guidelines at 
http://studentorgs.utexas.edu/salsa/subguidelines.htm) and I got excited.
