While teaching full-time, ACE teachers live in community with 3-6 other
current ACE teachers and work toward earning a Master in Education

summers and on-line work during the school year. The meeting will be at
9:00PM this Wed. in room 5-231.<br>

<font color="#330033"><tt>I had the privilige of attending this
Conference last year and it was absolutely amazing and this year it
looks even better. On top of the awesome speaker's lineup, the price
for registering before 12/31/05 is only $10 for students. I'd like to
try and get a large group to come out from MIT. They also discount
pricing for groups, so it'd be great if you could get back to me to let
me know if you're interested and I could register everyone as a group.
Hope many of you would be able to make it out for this awesome
experience (there were already 300 men signed up after the first day of
registration!). For more info on the conference visit:
