00:00:00.870 --> 00:00:02.460 align:middle line:84%
According to the
schedule we published

00:00:02.460 --> 00:00:04.200 align:middle line:84%
at the beginning
of the semester,

00:00:04.200 --> 00:00:07.200 align:middle line:84%
the last reading for the year
will be a week from tomorrow.

00:00:07.200 --> 00:00:10.980 align:middle line:84%
That's the Contest Awards
Reading in the Terrace Lounge.

00:00:10.980 --> 00:00:13.080 align:middle line:84%
And since then, we
have added two more

00:00:13.080 --> 00:00:18.270 align:middle line:84%
readings, all both on the
same day, in the afternoon.

00:00:18.270 --> 00:00:21.960 align:middle line:84%
Brenda Hillman will
read from her poetry

00:00:21.960 --> 00:00:25.410 align:middle line:84%
and Leonard Michaels will
read from his short fiction.

00:00:25.410 --> 00:00:28.590 align:middle line:84%
That's Monday
afternoon the 23rd,

00:00:28.590 --> 00:00:32.340 align:middle line:84%
Miss Hillman will read at 2
o'clock, Mr. Michaels at 3:30

00:00:32.340 --> 00:00:34.920 align:middle line:90%
in the Terrace Lounge.

00:00:34.920 --> 00:00:37.140 align:middle line:84%
And we'll be in the
Terrace Lounge tonight

00:00:37.140 --> 00:00:41.340 align:middle line:84%
for the reception
for Mr. Ignatow.

00:00:41.340 --> 00:00:43.710 align:middle line:84%
It's getting a little harder
to find the Terrace Lounge

00:00:43.710 --> 00:00:45.480 align:middle line:84%
if you haven't been
over there lately.

00:00:45.480 --> 00:00:47.775 align:middle line:84%
They keep adding
onto that terrace

00:00:47.775 --> 00:00:50.430 align:middle line:84%
and you have to fight your
way through the construction

00:00:50.430 --> 00:00:53.340 align:middle line:84%
to get through it, but please
come over and have a brownie.

00:00:55.512 --> 00:00:56.970 align:middle line:84%
One more reading
has been scheduled

00:00:56.970 --> 00:01:00.960 align:middle line:84%

00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:03.450 align:middle line:84%
and the reader is

00:01:03.450 --> 00:01:07.770 align:middle line:84%
Now that will be in the
Downtown campus, which

00:01:07.770 --> 00:01:11.100 align:middle line:90%
is Stone and Speedway--

00:01:11.100 --> 00:01:13.060 align:middle line:90%
just west of Stone and Speedway.

00:01:13.060 --> 00:01:14.820 align:middle line:84%
And I'm not sure
what the building is,

00:01:14.820 --> 00:01:17.440 align:middle line:84%
but it will be at 8:30 and
we have some posters that

00:01:17.440 --> 00:01:18.690 align:middle line:90%
give more information on that.

00:01:18.690 --> 00:01:22.180 align:middle line:90%


00:01:22.180 --> 00:01:24.460 align:middle line:84%
