Greetings+NAFSA

Greetings NAFSA colleagues! This wiki provides the backdrop to some work that Gayle and I will facilitate at the NAFSA conference in May / June 2010. There is more information in the wiki than we will have time to discuss in the workshop but I thought that you might want to have the extra resources to work with over time.



Details of this NAFSA session follow:
