CELT 2007 at Seattle Pacific University
As noted in the article in this issue by Kathryn Bartholomew, CETC's Christians in English Language Teaching 2007 (CELT 2007) conference will be held Tuesday March 20, 2007, the day before the TESOL 2007 Convention begins in Seattle, Washington, USA. The conference theme is "Spirituality and Professionalism" and featured speakers include Suresh Canagarajah and David Smith. We hope you will attend and, if possible, consider giving a presentation. Please read Kathryn's article for more information on how and where to submit proposals (deadline: January 1, 2007), and be sure to let others who might be interested know about this exciting conference. The call for papers appears on the CETC Web site, at http://www.cetesol.org/news/celt2007-call.html.

Thanks go to Andy Bowdler, who answered our call for a volunteer in the last newsletter and has agreed to be CETC's new e-list moderator.
