Registration Reminder - 33rd Siouan and Caddoan Languages Conference

Wed May 15 09:37:27 UTC 2013

Ha Armik,

I think it's a frustration everyone can understand (re: USD).  

What is the closest airport for the conference?  I don't think I can come but on the off chance...

Pidamayaye,
Ardis

We had 25 set aside for our conference. Make sure mention "Siouan and Caddoan Languages Conference" so that you will get the good rate. We have not passed the 25 limit (yet) so you will be ok.

Being in Vermillion has isolated me from my family, and also destroying my research career for some reason. I am not able to do any research because I am either teaching a ridiculous amount of classes or I have had to travel thousands of miles. I had about 10 trips to Denver and California this past semester ...

I listed my roommate as "probably Deniz Rudin" (my son, who also plans to submit a paper to the conference), but in fact it's possible that my husband will also come, in which case we'll probably want two rooms; presumably these kinds of things will get worked out later by actually calling the hotel, right???

When I heard you were organizing it I thought how wonderful to have it an hours drive from Wayne ... but I'm sure it will be great.  You ARE still in Vermillion, aren't you?  We should really get together sometime; so close by, it's ridiculous that I almost never get up there.
