October 2 Workshop Information and Reading Assignments

We are ready to start our second academic year of the grant in just a couple of weeks.

Our presenters on Thursday October 2, 2008 will be our Lead Scholar, Thomas Doughton and Alice Nash--those who attended the Summer Institute know that we can look forward to superb presentations from both.

Charlotte Haller from Worcester State will be with us in the afternoon to participate in the "Teach-Back" and to sign up those who are interested in receiving graduate credits for the Academic Year workshops. This is an extraordinarily good deal. Check out the links on the site for more information
