Hello Everyone!

Welcome to a new semester or the Visible Hand.If you have not already, IMMEDIATELY join up on the yahoo site so you can get started
uploading your abstracts. The link to the work group is on the left of the page. Within the Fall 2008 folder, make a folder
with your name, and then you can put your abstract, draft, and final
draft in this folder. Copy editors will upload their comments in these
folders as well.

Copy Editors! We are going to try and get you more involved with
your charges, so to speak. I would like you to meet with your writers,
just to get a better sense of things. This year we will be limiting
content copy editing to Juniors and Seniors. Copy editing for language and grammar is open to everyone
