Dear Ms. Nedkova:

We may have recently sent you information regarding the 1999-2000 Sawyer
Seminar at the Franke Institute for the Humanities (located at the
University of Chicago): "Computer Science as A Human Science:  The Cultural
Impact of Computerization."  There are several opportunities available for
scholars including a POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWSHIP, conference scholarships for
international visiting scholars from Brazil, Japan, Russia, and
Scandinavia, and a call for conference papers.

Since application deadlines are approaching soon (the postdoctoral
fellowship application deadline is 1 MARCH 1999), we would greatly
appreciate your assistance in spreading the word.  It would help us if you
could forward the postdoctoral fellowship description found below to
qualified advanced graduate students and recent graduates.

We truly appreciate any help you can provide to ensure the success of
our Seminar.  Thank you.
