[Jayhawk-chapter] River City Reading fest, October 9

[Chikako Mochizuki]

Hello Everyone,
I could be there from noon to one on that Saturday.  I have deadline of various fellowship applications is coming up less than a week from Oct. 9 not to mention my dissertation and my research presentation; so, noon to one would be the only time I could spare.  Thanks to both Sidney and James for organizing this!
Sincerely,

chikako Mochizuki
