Dorri Beam (ENG) and Gail Bulman (LLL) just sent us a lovely digital postcard:

"Greetings from North Carolina! We wanted to share this photo of us standing in front of the National Humanities Center. Thank you for giving us this opportunity to work on our manuscripts and fine tune our projects. It’s refreshing to spend focused time in this lovely and supportive setting."
