Message From the Director
Hi everyone,

As Director I get to witness the many accomplishments and all that good stuff that comes out of SLaLS over the course of the year. As we wind down towards the summer, I want to thank everyone for all their efforts – I truly appreciate everything everyone does to make our mark on campus and around the world as we celebrate language. Let’s look back on some highlights.
