<br>Subject: Linguists in the media on Oakland School Board's Ebonics resolution
<br>
<br>I am presently researching how the print media used linguist's
<br>expertise in their coverage of the Oakland School Board's Ebonics
<br>resolution.
<br>
<br>        As part of this research I am collecting information from
<br>linguists who sent letters to the editor of any newspapers.
<br>
<br>        If you sent a letter to the editor, I'd appreciate your
<br>sending me an e-mail with the following information:
<br>
<br>1. the name of the newspaper
<br>2. whether or not it was published.
<br>
<br>        Additionally, if you still have the letter and would be
<br>willing to send it to me, I would appreciate that as well.
