For our far-flung members who couldn't make it, the Daemen Conference, hosted by Dr. Peter Siedlecki and Margee Weiss, was a terrific success!  The food was great, the entertainment was awesome, and the presentations were engaging and informative!  Everyone enjoyed spending the time together--including our newest Board members, Ellen, Theresa, and Suzanne--Suzanne winning the book raffle at Dr. Howard Wolf's plenary-talk!

Keep watch for future blog-details on the spring conference at BMCC in exciting Manhattan, hosted by Dr. Juliet Emanuel and her team on Friday, April 11-12, 2008.  Juliet is also nominated for the upcomimg position of Vice President for fall 2008-2010. 

The readers from the Buffalo Irish Theatre were so wonderful!  They had us all at Joyce...with reeling renditions of Beckett, too!  We were a lucky audience at Daemen this weekend--perhaps lucky enough to have found this pot-o-gold treasure at the end of the rainbow, right in our own backyard, in Buffalo, New York!

A Blog, or web log, can function as a mode of accessible communication to a larger audience about pertinent information, relevent to a particular topic.  The NYCEA NEWS Blog space will be used as a way to impart quick updates to members.

In June 2007, Ellen Higgins was officially granted a position on the Board, as well as Theresa Desmond.  We welcome both Ellen and Theresa, and wish them good tidings as our newest Board members!

Suzanne Buffamanti is welcomed as a new member of the NYCEA Board!  Suzanne will be joined by Ellen Higgins and Theresa Desmond at the October Board meeting held at Daemen College to be inducted--best wishes to all three of our new Board members!
