SuEllen,

I sent three messages to your e-mail address but they were all rejected due
to "mail delivery error."  

Anyway, I just wanted to say thank you for the helpful information on
offering faculty workshops. I have one of the books, writing centers in
context, and that should get me started on preparing for the workshop.

I hope everying is going well with you and your center! have you attended
any conferences recently? I haven't been able due to my limited travel fund
per year. My center is getting increasingly more students now, which is a
very cheerful thing. I also "fought for"  four new Pentiums for my center,
which also attracted more students along with having increased our profile
on campus.

When it gets warmer a little bit, maybe we shoud have coffee again.

Keep in touch.
