A special note to our SIS family including alumni: We have great enthusiasm for the work of everyone who is a part of the SIS family and we are always so proud to see many of our alumni making contributions to
the profession as reflected in their presentations at the TLA conference. Congratulations to all our alumni and faculty who are contributing to the great program put together by TLA!
