----- Original Message ----- From: Dan Malleck <[log in to unmask]> To: <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Saturday, September 11, 1999 9:12 AM Subject: course on alcohol Dear list, I'm also putting together a course on the history of alcohol and temperance in Europe and America and would welcome any suggestions. I will be posting my syllabus and some course materials on the web, so stay tuned for further details. I will be teaching the course over January term, and I hope to get some information on the web by November. Thanks, Brad Kadel Luther College 700 College Dr. Decorah IA 52101 Tel.
