| CCCFLC CONFERENCE IN RIVERSIDE AND SAN FRANCISCO | ||
| Our annual conference will be split into two affordable meetings: Riverside on Friday, October 15, and San Francisco on Friday, October 22. | ||
| The Riverside meeting will be held at Riverside Community College and begin at 9AM. The morning session will feature Professors Cathy Collopy O'Donnell and Kathryn Kelly speaking about "Changing Demographics and Their Impact on Language Classes." This is followed by a plenary session and results of the barriers to study abroad survey compiled by Orange Coast College. | ||
| In the afternoon, there will be a session on Spanish for Spanish speakers led by Prof. Maria Carreira of CSU-Long Beach, and sectional meetings by language. | ||
| If you're looking for a hotel in Riverside, the Mission Inn is recommended, although a bit pricey. | ||
| The San Francisco meeting will focus on Project IMPAC and FL, and bring together members from the UC and CSU, as well as the CCCFLC. The meeting will take place at the City College of San Francisco Downtown Campus at 4th and Mission; this campus is near the Powell Street BART/Muni stations. | ||
| Friday evening, the San Francisco Opera will perform Puccini's Tosca at the Opera House. Tickets may be purchased at SFOPERA.com. | ||
| On Saturday, Oct. 23, the French Consulate, the Goethe Institute and the Institute of European Studies at UC Berkeley will host the first of two Saturday workshops entitled "Teach Europe". The sessions are free and include lunch. The second session will be Sat. Oct.30 at the Goethe Institute in San Francisco.

| If you're looking for a reasonably priced, nice hotel in San Francisco, go to hotels.com, as they currently list the Regis Warwick at $139. | ||
| Costs for either day are $30 for full-time and $25 for part-time faculty, with an additional $15 for nonmembers. | ||
| Click here for the registration form. The deadline is Sept.30! | ||
| 2005: THE YEAR OF LANGUAGES | ||
| Many colleges began the new year in good shape, and FL departments have reason to be cheerful as, while tuition increased to $26 a unit, at least the $50 BA-holder differential tuition was not put in place. We still remain the most reasonable way to acquire a language. | ||
