Voting ends at midnight on Sunday. traditionally MLA resolutions hav…[Read more]

Rosemary Feal replied to the topic Discussion in the forum
Prospective Forum: HEP Program Administration on MLA Commons 11 years, 8 months agoWe left it open precisely so MLA members could determine the scope. It could be about writing programs only, or it could include language program admins, DGSs, DUSs, and so on (so the sessions could vary year after year at the convention).
