Japanese House no minasan, ogenki desuka? I am very glad to have a chance to read your papers in your Global Village course and also had a chance to talk with most of you about the Global Village last couple of weeks. Prof. Mahoney, Director of the Global Village, would love to hear your opinions and ideas about the Global Village. He encouraged us to have a meeting with him and John Sama, but not much time left before the first Global Village meeting which will be held on Wednesday, February 7th. I am planning to go to his office hour around 1:00 on Monday. If you could join me, that would be great, but if you can't, he has more office hours. You can also send him email. Prof. Mahoney's offie hours: Mondays and Fridays from 1 to 2:30pm (telephone number: 656-2917) 11am to 12 noon on Tuesdays and Thursdays in Waterman 422a (telephone 656-1476).
