[IAEP] [DESIGN] Fwd: SIGDOC'10 - Call For Papers

[Edward Cherlin]

We need to get some grants. I would go if I could get funded and give
them plenty to think about. The US Dept. of Education has $44 billion
to hand out for education innovation. Can anybody help me apply, not
just for my benefit, but to pay you guys and hire more?
