Hi, Judy,
We are beginning our German immigrant lesson today! Be thinking about us!
And, over the weekend I worked on one of the presentations I'm doing about
Am. Memory; it was fun to pull it all together. And, sinc eyou mentioned
next year's institute I'll mention it when I do my prseentation too. Do you
have dates? When will application materials be ready?

        A good handle on the collection and technical skills., I didn't
attend any of the 8:00 a.m. tech sessions because I felt comfortable with
that so for me the best thing ws just the time to explore the collection
during orientation. But, some people may want to participate in some type
of online technical orientation.

        Perhaps it could be shorter, but I was comfortable with the time we
had.

        I think more towards mid-June would be better; seems like some
people were still in school when we started.

How to make it better?

        Ummm. . . . I don't think some people participated other than to
lurk; would be nice to have everyone contribute.
