E-Board No. 72

October 10, 2008 (repeat message)

Dear ISDCI members.

It appears that some people did not receive the eboard that I sent out last Friday. Consequently, to ensure that everyone receives the messages below (ISDCI Congress website announcement and a tenure track position announcement), I am sending it out again. My appologies to those of you who have received this message once already.

Courtney Smith
ISDCI Sec. Education
