Subject: [CBW_Exec] cbw minutes / 2008 precon

Thanks to all of you who have responded about the minutes, and especially to 
all for agreeing to do the work listed therein.  

Susan is working with presenters for the precon (New Orleans Writing Project 
and the two Inny winners), and she's been in contact with Chuck Bazerman about 
one or two workshops.  We'll keep you updated as to how he and Eileen Maley 
advise us to proceed.  I agree that we want to keep costs down and choices 
open, when possible, but if it looks like there's much of a chance that one of 
our workshops would possibly be rejected, we'll stay with one and encourage 
grad students to come without paying or something like that; no sense getting 
ahead of ourselves at this point.  

If there are any of you who do NOT want to be listed as discussion leaders for 
the precon workshop(s), please let me know.  Otherwise, when we submit the 
proposal, I'll list all of you.  And Sarah, I'll for sure have you on this one--
lo siento mucho for the omission this last time!  

Greg, I downloaded the pictures, but I have to download them in a different way 
to be able to send them to you.  In other words, I have to get technical help 
from one of my kids b/c I don't know what I'm doing.  kb
