Speakers Symposium on Computer Science and Education Dear Colleague,

At last, the program for your symposium is off the press and in the mail. A personal copy is enclosed for you with a couple of extras for

you to post. Your assistance in promoting attendance will be helpful. : I regret that I cannot arrange for your lodgings (instructions are on the program). I will, of course, be eager to assist locally with any unusual problems should you encounter any (call (714)870-2221). Direct coach service to the hotel is available from Los Angeles International Airport (about one hour) and from Orange County Airport (about 20 minutes).

You can compute the timing for your presentation by noting that each session is 100 minutes long. We all look forward to hearing you.
