Societies that wish to present two programs at the MLA get one of
them bumped to the undesirable last day of the conference. This time
we got the last, worst time of all. Please arrange your travel plans
in order to attend; we need you! New Orleans is a wonderful city,
worth spending an extra night in if you can. Perhaps we can all have
a couple of drinks after the session. --Chaz.

Here's how it will appear in the program:

SUNDAY, 30 DECEMBER
