Dear Chip,
I hope you're enjoying this beautiful fall day.
I'm writing a personal note to remind everyone in our Engaged Illinois group about the Community-Campus Summit tomorrow. You can see more about the Summit, the panelists and the follow-up workshop at my blog: http://spanishandillinois.blogspot.com/.
