Title1st Symposium on Japanese Language Education in the U.S., 2004
Body
From: http://www.jflalc.org/teaching/Symposium04.htm

The No Child Left Behind (NCLB) legislation will have profound effects, both
positive and negative on foreign language education, and especially on
lesser commonly taught languages such as Japanese. In recognition of this,
on August 1st and 2nd we are having our first ever Japanese Language
Summer Symposium. The theme for this conference is "No Teacher Left
Behind". We plan to explore the effects that NCLB will have on foreign
language teachers in general, and also more specifically on Japanese
teachers.

The Symposium will be held at the New Otani Hotel and Garden in Little
Tokyo (Downtown Los Angeles) on August 1st from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with
a banquet the same day from 6:00 to 8:00 PM. The Symposium will continue
on August 2nd from 9:00 AM to 3:15 PM.
