I had been thinking we'd have colloquium every term next year, each week as we've been doing. But Andrew Winer suggested to me that some of you have expressed a bit of burn-out, and that colloquium might work better if it was every other week, four or five times per term, rather than every week. We might schedule it then for two or three full hours rather than the hour and half we've been doing. He also thought maybe having it just in fall and spring was enough, and that winter term should be left free for you to work and be able to focus on Writers Week. </DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>This makes some sense to me. But it is after all your reading series. So could you all let me know your thoughts? </DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>Thanks!</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>Robin</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV><BR><DIV> <SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><DIV style="font-size: 11px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 11px; ">Robin Russin</SPAN></DIV><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font-size: 11px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 11px; ">Assistant Professor</SPAN></DIV><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font-size: 11px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 11px; ">Department of Theatre</SPAN></DIV><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font-size: 11px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 11px; ">University of California, Riverside</SPAN></DIV><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font-size: 11px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 11px; ">Riverside, CA 92521</SPAN></DIV><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font-size: 11px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 11px; ">(951) 827-2707</SPAN></DIV><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font-size: 11px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 11px; ">(213) 949-1061 cel</SPAN></DIV><DIV style="font-size: 11px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 11px; "><A href="mailto:robin.russin@ucr.edu">robin.russin@ucr.edu</A></SPAN></DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><BR class="Apple-interchange-newline"></SPAN></SPAN> </DIV><BR></DIV></BODY></HTML>
