Subject: Language at Annual COLFA Research Conference and Showcase
Colleagues:
I wanted to let you know that we've decided by unanimous and enthusiastic vote to bring back the languages showcase as part of the Annual COLFA Research Conference and Showcase. The language speeches and Commedia del Arte last year were big hits. This year
we want more. So please let me know if you have students or student groups who we might feature in the hour allotted us.
The official conference dates are Wednesday and Thursday, March 20-21, 2024.
Just as a reminder, last year we had speeches in Korean and Japanese from students at various levels of proficiency, followed by a one act play in the Commedia del Arte tradition that combined French, Italian, and English and brought down the house. Along those
lines we're looking for anything that highlights the impressive language skills of our students. Let's make sure people know who we are and what we do!
Let me know asap so we can get a slot for your language on the program.
Thanks,
Nathan
