Hi David,

yes, we need a date asap. 

Cathy thinks that the incoming poets are tremendous and make it the best, smartest, brightest overall cohort yet. Plus Niamh Mahoney, the Fullbright, is in the group and tremendously alert. She's writing a PhD on Trevor Joyce, Susan Howe et al . . I've been in their company and can attest to an overall good sense of good energy.

It so happens that I may be going to Indiana after and the meeting would be en route. Not guaranteeing, but if I'm free I'll see you tomorrow. Want to keep up with CW--after all, I'm teaching 651 in the spring. How are the 5 new poets doing? I couldn't make it for that intro session.
