Wendy: Upward Bound at Madera will not be able to participate this year. I will continue to share the call for proposals. Monica -----Original Message----- From: CENTRALCAL [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Wendy White Sent: Monday, August 25, 2008 11:54 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: PDS for Cencal Importance: High Happy Monday, This is your "Beginning of the week reminder" to book your room reservations for our Annual PDS coming up in October. Check out our CenCal website for the reservation link for the hotel. The deadline is midnight, Sept. 7th. Book your room, even if your plans are tentative. You can always cancel, but it would help for planning purposes for both the hotel and our event planning. Just a quick update. The Gates Millennium Scholars Program just confirmed that they would like to host a workshop at our PDS under the umbrella of the Hispanic Youth Scholarship Fund and the African-American Scholarship Fund Programs. They have some information they would like to share with us regarding their Male Initiative program as well. Continue to spread the word, and proposals are still being accepted for all program types (Pre-College, College, and Graduate). I have attached the presenter letter and Call for papers.
