LSA -- Jan 5-8

[Susan Penfield]

Mia and all,
I didn't actually intend to post to ILAT, but I'm glad I did. There are a
number of good papers which will be presented (including Mia's I'm sure) at
the LSA national meetings in Alburquerque in January (5-8). I hope many
people will try to attend. The SSILA (Society for the Study of Indigenous
Languages ) is being held in concert with LSA that weekend as well. Our
'special session' is aimed at showcasing community work and community
language specialists in this national forum.
Hope others can make it! Looking forward to seeing you there, Mia!
Happy New Year to all!
Susan
