Modeling Workshops in North Carolina this summer



Teachers:
I just learned that spaces are available at each of the three North
Carolina sites of Modeling Workshops. You can probably get free housing at
2 of the sites if you act fast.

Their stipends are $60/day, plus $10 meals allowance. The workshop leaders
are excellent!

If your school ends before June 10, the Appalachian State Univ workshop
will be a great choice! You can stay in a dorm there for $35/day.

cheers,
Jane Jackson
