Habari gani? I am effectively disbanding the National African American Student Leadership Conference (NAASLC) committee at this time. As I mentioned previously, with no abstracts and no money as of now, it is not realistic to attempt to host the national scale conference as planned. Instead, I am going to organize a by-invitation African American Student Leadership Retreat. Approximately 20-30 selected student leaders will be invited to participate in a two-day retreat to be held at a location to be announced on February 27-28, 2015. The primary outcome is to have a group of student leaders emerge from the retreat who will take the lead in developing and planning for the NAASLC 2015 (fall) or 2016. Among the objectives of the retreat will be for the students to produce several position papers on pertinent topics. Elders, community leaders, academics, and others are encouraged to serve as mentors and workshop presenters. Instructions for submitting abstracts along with registration fees will be provided shortly. Invited students will attend free of charge. I will keep you all posted as the program develops. If anyone has any questions regarding the above, please email me privately at tsugislab@gmail. Otherwise, I will be engaged with some personal and business matters and will not be available until after January 12th. Wishing you all a peaceful Kwanzaa Week. David A. Padgett
