[nativestudies-l] Tuesday event

[jkauanui at wesleyan.edu]

Greetings-
Re-sending this announcement that Amy Den Ouden sent yesterday.
I plan to go.  If anyone in CT wants to carpool, I plan to
leave Middletown at 2:30pm and go directly to the event (about
an hour early to set up recording equipment). One student is planning
to join me, so there's still room for two more in the car if you can
meet at my point of departure.
