Dear Colleagues,

I am happy to serve as the President-Elect of the SC-AATF this year. 

Are you looking for something interesting to do with your students and colleagues this National French Week (November 5-11, 2008)?  Well, past President, Lara Lomicka Anderson, Ph.D., (Department of Languages, Literatures, & Cultures University of South Carolina, Columbia) is  the faculty liaison for the USC French House. If you would like to partner on any events with them for National French Week, please contact the French House programming director, Nicole Modeen at:    modeen@mailbox.sc.edu

Also, Lara has in the past done a tour of the French art collection at the Columbia Museum of Art during National French Week. She is happy to offer the tour again.  Get the word out early to your students and staff. If you are interested, Dr. Lomicka Anderson needs a date during French Week (usually on a Sunday around 1:30 or 2) so that she can schedule with the museum.  Contact her at:  lomicka@gwm.sc.edu.

Have a great fall semester!

Liz Zahnd, Ph. D.

Associate Professor of French
