Dear NY Provosts and Academic Vice Presidents,
I am writing to thank you for assisting us for the past three years and
to ask if you would please forward this ³call for papers² to your faculty
again this year. We at Bergen Community College of NJ are very excited to
be hosting this fourth annual Tri-State Best Practices Conference with
the theme of ³Culture, Learning, and Learning Cultures: Teaching and
Learning in a Diverse Environment.² Thanks to your assistance in sending
out the call last year, our 2014 conference was a great success with over
120 presenters from 21 different two and four year colleges throughout
NJ, NY, and PA. We feel it is a wonderful opportunity for faculty at your
college to meet those around the tri-state area who share their passion
for teaching and collaborating with their peers in an interdisciplinary
and intercollegiate environment.

The conference will once again be fully funded by BCC and participants
will not need to pay a registration fee of any kind.

I would like express my appreciation to you for making sure that our call
for papers and proposals reaches your faculty members at some point over
the next few days since the deadline for submission is November 1. The
success of our conference is, of course, dependent on our call for papers
reaching all interested faculty in the area.

Thank you again for your assistance in helping us inform your faculty
about this excellent opportunity and I hope to see many of them at our
conference in March.

Best wishes,
Sarah Shurts
