<b>NEW TO THE LIST?</b><br>
<br>
Since our digests have new opportunities listed every week (and we
don't often list the same program twice), you may want to browse our
archives for digests you missed, or to find a program in an old digest
you deleted. (Unfortunately, due to technical difficulties, the
listserv archives only go back to the beginning of the F'07 semester.)<br>
