35th Annual Regional Language Arts Conference - Nov. 18 & 19

The LAC is an annual event in which Western Pacific educators are provided with opportunities for professional growth and enrichment in literacy.  The conference is organized by the Division of English and Applied Linguistics (DEAL) at the University of Guam and co-sponsored by the Guam International Literacy Association.  ILA members can register for the conference during their Fanuchånan (Fall) semester.  Participation is limited, so we encourage you to register early.
