Sent on behalf of Dr. Ulana Klymyshyn.

To Equity Representatives:

One reason why you are receiving a number of emails about the Equity
Conference in the last couple of days is that so far relatively few
people have registered to attend.  If you think of something that would
help get more people to come, let me know. (This email is long but
please keep reading.)

Please note that a new break-out session (# II-A) has been added at
10:30 am on Monday, March 22 as a substitute for a panel discussion. The
session on "NEFE High School Financial Planning Program Presentation" is
being offered by MCAN and members of the Michigan Department of the
Treasury.

The program for this year consists of wonderful and informative
sessions.  Several of the sessions are designed to provide information
on funding sources.  They are great opportunities to develop ideas and
plans for coping with these difficult economic times.

Dr. Bryan Cook-the featured speaker on Monday, March 22-is known
nationally for the reports on minority participation in higher education
that he has prepared for ACE (American Council on Education).  He brings
a perspective that will help us compare the situation in Michigan with
what is going on around the country.

Dr. Carlos Cortes from the University of New Mexico-the keynote speaker
Monday at noon-is both a historian and an educator who has been on the
forefront of the development of multicultural education since the
beginning of this movement.

The closing speaker at noon on Tuesday, Ms. Brandy Johnson-Faith
(Governor Granholm's State College Access Coordinator & Director of
MCAN) will provide valuable information on changes in Michigan policies
on higher education and projections for future trends. 

The more than 20 concurrent sessions focus on college preparation and on
programs that increase the retention rate. No matter how experienced we
are, all of us will learn from our colleagues as they inform us about
their programs.

And the Sunday reception is at the state-of-the-art Ziibiwing Cultural
Center which showcases the history and culture of the Anishnaabe
(Chippewa, Odawa and Potawatomi) cultures in our area.  

Who can ask for more? Please encourage your colleagues to come, if only
to get refreshed and share new ideas with other people who are working
on increasing minority retention and graduation rates. 

See you at the conference, Ulana Klymyshyn
