Dear Va-Hist subscribers,

Totally unrelated to the recent deluge of messages that have poured into
all our mailboxes, I would like to post the following announcement about
the 2003 Summer Teachers Institute at the Virginia Historical Society. 

Thanks,
Paul Levengood

---------------------
Teachers Institute, July 7-July11, 2003
The Virginia Historical Society announces its 2003 Summer Teachers
Institute, "Beyond Lewis & Clark: Virginia Experiences the West."  This
program will immerse 15-20 elementary and secondary school teachers in
an intensive study of various topics related to western exploration.
Professor Kathryn Fuller-Seeley of Virginia Commonwealth University will
serve as the lead faculty member.  Teachers selected for the program
will work closely with Dr. Fuller-Seeley, VHS professional staff, and
guest faculty in lectures, seminar discussions, and on individual
research projects. All textbooks and reading materials are free, and
meals and lodging will be provided for out-of-town participants.  In
addition, all participants will receive a stipend of $400.
