Mary Ashley (GTU), ``Kin-dom Come: Extending Margaret A. Farley's `Just Love' to All Living Beings'';

At 7 p.m. Margaret Race will deliver a free public lecture in the Tucson Room, on Environmental Ethics on Earth and Elsewhere in Our Universe.

On Saturday, a continental breakfast will be available at 9:30 a.m. in the Tucson Room at CDSP.

We will adjourn probably at noon. We hope to see you there!

Future Meeting Dates

The meeting dates are NORMALLY the Friday and Saturday after Western Easter and the first Friday and Saturday in November. We would prefer not to deviate from the rule, but did for the Fall 2009 meeting, because it coincides with the national AAR meeting. The date for it was moved to October 23-24.

Here are the NORMAL dates:

year    Easter date             PCTS Spring             PCTS Fall 
2008       3-23                 March 28-29             November 7-8
2009       4-12                 April 17-18             October  23-24  EARLY
2010       4-4                  April  9-10             November 5-6
2011       4-24                 April 29-30             November 4-5
2012       4-8                  April 13-14             November 2-3
2013       3-31                 April  5-6              November 1-2

As of 2010-06-28, the AAR and SBL will be meeting jointly again in and after 2011, the weekend before Thanksgiving, and so the PCTS will presumably be meeting the first Friday and Saturday in November.

AAR/SBL meetings for the next three years are (2011) November 19-22, San Francisco; (2012) November 17-20, Chicago; (2013) November 23-26, Baltimore.
