The two groups are to talk tomorrow night (Monday), and evidently that conference is considered the new deadline. See the New York Chapter e-mail below for more info.<div><br></div><div>The local alumni group meeting planned for this Tuesday, April 29, will therefore give us an opportunity to exchange the very latest -- possibly final -- news, talk over our individual responses to it, and decide what our group response should be. </div><div><br></div><div>The meeting is scheduled for 6:30 Tuesday, at Masha Etkin's house, 10 Copley Street, Brookline. We'll share a take-out Chinese dinner and then get down to business. Please let me know -- or remind me! -- if you plan to come.
