***************************  ATTENTION  ***********************************

Hi! I'm Felicia Lin the networking VP of TASC and Midwest representative.
This is a message to notify you of the ITASA/TASC Midwest Cultural
Conference that is going to be held at the University of Illinois
Nov.20-22.

Please let me know who the contact person for the Taiwanese association at
your university is. I'll need a postal address (for your organization or
contact person) so that I can mail registration forms out to you. 

I'm planning to send registration forms out by the end of the week.
Thanks.

******If you know of any contact people at other Midwest schools (other
Taiwanese student groups) who might be interested please let me know!*******
 
Here's the info about our conference.

*NOTE: this workshop may be subject to change since it is still being
finalized!!

We hope to create a more relaxed, informal atmosphere with a less
structured schedule and to have more free time... so people can get to
know each other better... complaints about past conferences have been a
lack of free time due to busy conference schedules and not being able to
see the campus of the hosting school, or to meet everyone attending the
conference.

The registration fee is $20, this includes all housing, conference events
and a ITASA/TASC conference t-shirt. In order to guarantee that a t-shirt
is reserved for you, a deadline has been set on Nov.4 for registration
forms. After that date t-shirts are not guaranteed. There will be extras
available at the conference but they will be distributed on a first come
first serve basis.

If you are interested in attending this conference, contributing ideas,
doing a workshop, please contact me, Felicia Lin the Networking VP of TASC
(Taiwanese American Student's Club) and Midwest Regional Representative of
ITASA.
