A Note of Gratitude

As I circulated through the corridors and sessions of the 1976 ACTFL Annual Meeting in New Orleans, I was impressed by the f a c t that so many people contributed to the success of the meeting. It i s impossible t o thank everyone adequately, either personally or in writing, for their contributions to the program. I would l ike to take this opportunity, however, to extend m y sincere personal gratitude to the speakers, presenters, consultants, workshop directors, local committee, and any others who contributed in any way to the program. The success of the meeting i s once again evidence of the fac t that many people make ACTFL what i t is. Thank you.
