Dear Colleagues,
Two quick items for you. First, I'll be joining the Spring 2007
voyage of Semester at Sea in just a few days, and won't physically
return to my office until mid-May 2007. Oldtimers on the list will
recall that a few gep-ed administrative problems cropped up that last
time I did this round-the-world jaunt, back in Spring 2001. I **do
not** expect similar difficulties this time out (with a special
promise to Beth DeSombre), given a number of improvements in the
listserve software and my increased connectivity from the ship. But,
alas, this means that I won't see many of you at the ISA meetings in
late February (and nor will Simon Nicholson of American University or
Monty Hempel of the University of Redlands -- both are serving on the
faculty for this voyage). I look forward to seeing the ISA-crowd
again in 2008, in San Francisco.
Second, I forward below a request from a colleague, Pamela Prodan,
who is at the University of Maine. Pamela asks the following: "I'm
looking for any tips or best practices for integrating an energy
component into my Environmental Law class at UMF." If any of you on
the list have experience, syllabi, or ideas that might be useful to
Pamela, please email her directly at <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
All the best,
Mike Maniates
Glorious List Administrator and Wanna-Be Sailor
