QC participants will each receive a brand new laptop computer on loan for
up to three years, to facilitate their ePortfolio work. Because of
this, space is limited, and we will give preference to participants who
indicate departmental support for ePortfolios. For questions, please
contact Fei-Wen Pirovolikos at fpirovolikos@qc.cuny.edu.</font><font size=3>
