The City University of New York announces the Symposium on Phonological Theory: Representations and Architecture, to be held February 20 and 21, 2004 at the Graduate Center of the City University of New York. The symposium will address the following questions: How should phonological objects be represented? What is the optimal architecture for phonological theory? This symposium presents state of the art work on these issues by leading researchers. For more information, visit their website at http://web.gc.cuny.edu/linguistics/events/phonology_symposium

This will be the last WHASC of the quarter. It is also the last issue for interim editor Laura McShane. I would like to take this opportunity to say how much I've enjoyed working in the Linguistics Department for the last four months. Thanks to Tanya and Connie for proofreading WHASC for me and generally being wonderful to work with, and thanks to everyone for making me feel right at home. If you ever find yourself across campus at Oakes College, stop by room 229 and say hello. Or look for me onstage if you attend an orchestra or wind ensemble concert here on campus (and who knows-maybe one day the New York Philharmonic.)

Best of luck to all of you. The next WHASC will be the January 7 issue, with Connie Creel once again at the helm.
