The following message is from Nina Ito, president of CATESOL:

Happy New Year!  Best wishes for a great semester with your students!

As you know, the CATESOL Annual Conference will take place in April in Oakland.  All committee members are hard at work to put on a wonderful and memorable event.  Please urge your students to check out the conference website:

The website contains a link to an interview with Conference Chair, Judy O’Loughlin.  I’ll also copy the link here.

We hope to see hundreds and hundreds of LING / TESOL students at the conference.  It’s such an important “first step” for them to take!

Kind regards,

Nina Ito, President-Elect, CATESOL
