Dear MAC Members, I find myself in a bind. Due to certain circumstances a decision must be made regarding the mid winter conference. There are two options; The first option is that some one immediately take over the chair's responsibilities. We have no time to lose. The other option is that MAC not be part of it. I will leave it up to the membership to decide. Please, if there is someone who feels they can and are willing to take this responsibility, let me know ASAP, tonight or tomorrow. If do not find anyone to take the position, MAC will not be part of this. I am hoping for the best. I am sorry, but I have tried everything I can to keep this going and I see no other alternative. -- Dr. Petra Guerra Head Minorities and Communication-AEJMC Associate Director Chican@ Latin@ Studies University of Wisconsin-Madison 313 Ingrham Hall 1155 Observatory Dr. Madison WI 53704 608-263-8395 [log in to unmask] www.chicla.wisc.edu(http://www.chicla.wisc.edu)
