Request for info: Siouan and Caddoan Conference

[Rankin, Robert L]

Hi John,

Actually, you have a good number of talks scheduled.  My slot should be OK.  My dialysis appointment will be sometime early Friday as far as I know.  I wish I could be there Saturday for the papers and party, but it's out of my hands.  I have to pick up Carolyn in Milwaukee Friday evening and drive on toward western Wisconsin.

Looks like you have another really good bunch of student papers this year.

Best,

Bob

Hi All,

Here is the tentative schedule.  I have had to accommodate a number of
different arrival and departure dates.  I also had a number of people as if
there would be time to see any of the sights in Chicago (I have left
Saturday afternoon open for this).  Please let me know if I have scheduled
your talk sometime when you won¹t be in Chicago!  Things may still move
around a bit, but hopefully not too much.

All the best,

John
