I wanted to let you all know that ISSI 2013 will be happening again this year at Lake Tahoe Community College. It's a great week-long experience for
people of all learning levels, from no Spanish whatsoever to high level skills.
On-line registration begins Friday May 31 for returning students (attended last year) and June 3 for new students. If you want to attend, don't delay
in registering ASAP.
Classes fill up fast (possibly within just days). Itīs very affordable and you have a variety of lodging to choose from: hotels, rentals, camping.
Dates of ISSI this year: Aug 12-16.

If you are interested, you should read up on the various Spanish class levels available and determine where you think you would fit. That way, you'll
be ready to register. You need to fill out a college application before you can register for a specific course. I think you can do that before
actual class registration begins, but I canīt remember exactly if you can.
You can register at a lower or higher class level than you think you are at, if needed, because as room permits, they allow you to change to a more
appropriate level on the first day of instruction.
It's a great program. I attended as a student for two years. Then four years ago, I started teaching "breakout sessions" on both sea turtles and gray
whales. For the last three years, Iīve added a week long lecture series on Conservation and Natural History of Baja California (see my website below
for more info). Iīll be back again this year with all of the above plus an additional breakout session on Baja tourism.
Hope to see you there!
