Title: Article in this Sunday's Oregonian
Body: From: Gary Hargett Just a heads-up, The Oregonian plans to publish an article on ELL education in Oregon on Sunday. I've had quite a bit of contact with the reporter, and I know other people have also. I feel some trepidation, since one never knows how one's words will wind up in print. I wanted to let you know so you can take the opportunity to respond to the article if you wish with letters to the editor. If the article positively portrays our efforts, great, say so. If you think it's in some way unfair to them, I encourage you to say so as well. Gary --- GARY HARGETT

Title: Cross Cultural Communication Partners Sought
Body: From: "Hajime Kumahata"
Dear Japanese language teachers,
My name is Hajime Kumahata and I work for Rice University as Language
Technology Consultant. My friend, Dr. Masamichi Okubo, Associate Professor at Tokyo Polytechnic University, and I would like to invite you to our project in cross cultural communication.
We are looking for 12-15 American college students studying Japanese
language to communicate with Japanese peers through internet. The
objective, communication tools, and activities are listed in the proposal, which can be viewed via this link
(http://www.kumahata.com/edu/crossculturalproject.html)
I understand that your semester has already begun and this may be too late of notice. But if you are interested in this project and have students who can participate in Japanese, please let us know. We will honor the "first come, first serve" system due to the limited number that we can accept. Since I will be the coordinator in the States' side, I will do my best to assist you in any way, including technological issues.
Lastly, we would like to emphasis that this is a one semester only project and the content is not subject for research.
Thank you,
Hajime Kumahata

Title: Beyond the Oregon Trail: Oregon's Untold History-Teacher Training
Body: From: "VICTOR Brad"
When: October 10, 2003 8:45 am - 3:30 pm
Where: Oregon Food Bank Community Room
7900 NE 33rd (Between Columbia & Marine Dr.)
Portland, Oregon
Over a period of l88 years the federal and Oregon governments passed more than 30 laws that discriminated against groups of individuals and citizens, based solely on their ethnicity. This had a profound effect not only on people of color who were directly affected, but also on attitudes and behaviors of the dominant White culture-even today. Few Oregonians know of these laws and fewer still understand their impact on present behaviors and attitudes.
