ACES workshop update

Paula LaRocque and Hank Glamann have confirmed for our Oct. 21 workshop. I've tweaked the schedule, and it's going to look something like this:

10-10:15 a.m.: opening
10:15-11:45 a.m.: plenary session with Paula LaRocque
noon-1 p.m.: two sessions, one on design (Austin American-Statesman design gurus) and one on the Web (possibly a UT professor)
1-2:30 p.m.: lunch on your own
2:30-3:30 p.m.: two sessions, one on Texas politics (Ross Ramsey of Texas Weekly) and one on multimedia for the Web (Jorge Sanhueza-Lyon of the Austin American-Statesman)
3:40-5:10: plenary session with Hank Glamann on headlines
5:10: closing

There might be a few adjustments as we go. Please contact me if you have questions about hotels and other logistics. The workshop is free, and students are welcome. We'll post a flier up here soon with more details and a map. Because it's a Sunday, parking at the University of Texas shouldn't be a problem. We'll probably also arrange a social activity for the night before. It might just be that we'll let you know where to gather. Nothing formal.

The opening session will be in an auditorium in the College of Communication at Dean Keeton Street and Whitis Avenue, Room CMA 2.320. http://www.utexas.edu/maps/main/buildings/cma.html

All are welcome -- not just Texas copy editors. Come join us!
