Dear all,

Monty Graham participated in DIALOG V as a mentor and developed some 
professional development sessions that were so well received that he 
is writing them up for the DIALOG webpage and is also taking them on 
a 'road show'. This is wonderful, since it  means we can reach more 
people than with the symposia alone.

For the 2004 ASLO/TOS meeting in Hawaii this February, the DIALOG 
program will have 4 lunch time slotes for sessions on career issues, 
plus the usual evening DIALOG 'reception'.  We hope to make such 
sessions regular features of ASLO and other scientific society 
meetings. We can't attend all, so are hoping to use any and all 
DIALOG participants who are willing to help out at their particular 
meetings....

Monty is going to take the lead on the Hawaii meeting,  but  we think 
it would be wonderful to get ANY of the past DIALOGers involved in 
these (either leading on a specific session or simply dropping by as 
a resource in discussion).
      Here are some ideas coming out of DIALOG V--
Tenure tips
Negotiating skills
Communications
Meet the Program Officers and Agency overviews
Proposal writing tips
--You guys may have other ideas.

Here's the problem-we were originally told that we should wait until 
the Savannah meeting to do this. Now that they have a better idea of 
what will be on for Hawaii, they have agreed to give us the space. 
But, we need to get the text to the printer by Thursday.
      So, if you're interested in leading a session or participating 
in one, PLEASE LET MONTY AND ME KNOW IMMEDIATELY.

Even if you just plan to stop by the evening DIALOG 'reception', let 
me know so I can get a handle on the numbers--I hope to have some 
food and need to know how much to order.  We do hope to do something 
imaginative with the evening session to attract 'new recruits'. :) 
Any ideas are most welcome.

cheers, Sue and Monty
