Greetings, Friends:

    I thought I'd share this with you. Maria Boland has proposed to write for _Progressive Outpost_ about the School of the Americas/WHINSEC (Maria i s chief organizer and leader of the student protest trip I alluded to in my
 preceding message). Maria knows a lot about this and is committed to acti ng in relation to it.

    Anything like that -- you can and should write on yourself! If you are
 like me, you will have recognized again and again that the vast majority o f people in this area, and especially on this campus, have limited familiar ity with many specific, concrete issues of progressive interest and concern
--even when we think they should. Here's your chance to help share this kn owledge, and broaden and deepen the interest and concern. Any progressive
 issue that you've been particularly involved with and have a passion for, including ones that you have brought to bear in your work on campus, includ ing as a teacher -- in and for your classes -- we will welcome! We don't h ave a regular print publication dedicated toward progressive news, analysis
, reflection, argument, etc. in this area other than _Progressive Outpost_ and we at _Progressive Outpost_ can use what you submit us. The more we ha ve the better our opportunities to raise funds to make this a long-term sus tainable project (although we're not going anywhere anytime soon), and to k eep expanding and strengthening what we do. Faculty, staff, students, alum ni, administrators, community members, and even people living outside of th e community are all welcome to submit for us!

    Thank you -- keep Maria's example in mind. And here's a final point o f encouragement--we are thinking that if and when we have enough solid, qua lity material we can double the current size, and even add additional color s of ink. So help us do that. Let's make a big impact come December.

    Finally, very specific to staff and faculty for peace and justice, we especially strongly welcome reports, commentaries, and reflections relevant
 to the Eberth Alarcon Memorial Lecture Series, and any and all other proje cts sfpj has discussed working on at this time.
