Dear CAE Colleagues,
Last Friday, November 13, the field and the world lost one of our giants
when Dell Hymes passed away. Išm sure there will be more on arrangements
and reflections on his incredible body work over the next days and weeks. I
wanted to let you know that there will be a memorial event in his honor at
the AAA Meeting on Saturday, December 5, 2009, from 7:30-9 pm in the Grand
Ballroom III at the Courtyard Marriott.
Dell Hymes was especially important to our organization and to the
anthropology of education. I welcome your thoughts on ways in which we in
CAE can best honor him and his lifešs work.
With best regards,
Terri
