Jens...thanks so much! This worked great. I hadn't thought of changing the 
markup entirely. I did as you suggested and although I was asked to remove the 
bullets entirely, it it the perfect solution for the problem.

Thanks again,

Jeralyn

The easiest way for you would be to add the list-style-type property
to your indented list items:

  #listyle li.indent
    {
      margin-left: 20px;
      font-weight: normal;
      list-style-type: none;
    }

Please notice that I added #listyle to the selector, otherwise the
former style rule, which sets the list-style-type property to "disc"
would have greater specificity.

But may I suggest you change the markup instead as you list the topics
of an agenda with additional information. In my opinion the speakers
should not be part of the list as a separate list item. I think it
would be better if you changed the LI elements with class "indent" to
P elements with the same class and style rule (and remember to put the
end tags of the LI elements after the end tag of the P elements like
such:

  
What Every School Attorney Needs to Know About Sovereign Immunity

The advantage of this approach becomes immediately visible if you view
your page without Style Sheets.

Cheers,
