<p class=MsoPlainText>Dear Intrepid Historians,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>PLEASE READ the following....<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>Remember that the 5<sup>th</sup> Annual Student History
Conference will take place this Friday, April 24, all day in the third floor of
the Student Center.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>Could I ask you to consider showing up at the early part
of the conference, especially? We need a strong (VERY strong) student and
faculty turn-out at the 9:00 a.m. opening ceremonies to the History Conference
this Friday. It's in the third floor, room 314, of the Student Center and
will begin promptly.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>In addition to our own intrepid leader, Dr. Schultz, both
Dean Suchar and Provost Epp will be there to represent the college and
university, respectively, and to help kick-off our fifth annual
conference. A strong showing of our faculty and students would be very important
and illustrate, again, the importance of the work of all of you, our students,
and the department. The ceremony should end around 9:20. If you are
on the way to class or presenting a paper in one of the early sessions, please
consider stopping in. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>So, again, please put this on your calendar as a
"high priority" item. And, don't forget to visit our day's
panels and support your friends and peers.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>See you on Friday morning!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>Best, Gene<o:p></o:p></p>
