Subject: Reminder re Macedonian Conference
Dear colleagues:
Even though the originally announced July 15 date has passed for a
preliminary expression of interest in taking part in the 5th
Macedonian-North American Conference on Macedonian Studies at Ohio
State University next May (and a good many people have indeed
contacted me about the conference), I don't want any interested party
out there to be excluded, so please consider this an invitation to
make your interest known if you have not done so already. It is not
too late to inform me of your interest and to send in an abstract for
our consideration!
The announcement for the conference sent out earlier is repeated
below, with the dates indicated. So far there has been a good level
of interest shown by North American colleagues (and please note the
broad definition of "North American" here -- by birth, citizenship, or
current affiliation) though we hope for more.
My thanks in advance,
- Brian
