Hi Mr. Thornton,
Per our earlier phone conversation, my political science class meets M & W 330-445 pm in Room 303 of Warner Hall on the WCSU campus on White Street (Route 6) near downtown Danbury.
Warner Hall is next door to the University's Haas Library.
The name of the class is "World Government, Cultures and Economies". It is an introductory course really to International Relations and International Political Economy. Most of my students are business majors and they have read and are reading "The Culture Struggle" by Michael Parenti, "The Clash of Civilizations" by Samuel Huntington, and "Globalization and its Discontents" by Joseph Stiglitz.
If you could guest lecture on next Monday December 4th, 2006 starting at 330 pm that would be great. And if you would be willing to guest lecture on your area of expertise, international drug policy as a manifestation of geo-political strategy and or corporate globaliztion then that would be TERRIFIC!
Western Conn. State University is located off of Exit 5 on I-84...if you need directions then just let me know. You can reach me at this email address or at my phone number
203-264-0192.
I would be happy to buy you late lunch or an early dinner at the Brazilian Cafe next door to the campus.
I look forward to meeting you and if I can be of any further assistance then please let me know.
Sincerely,
Owen Sullivan.

10. The New Haven GP would like to bring up to the SCC on 11-28-06:
a) We would like an update on the plan to change state party rules to allow for a more workable quorum requirement. I believe that the definition of what an active chapter is has also been a part of this planning.
b) A rule change that would clarify the grounds under which a duly nominated candidate can be asked by the party to withdraw.
3) Plans for making on-line contributions available on the CTGP web site similar to the method used by the Thornton campaign.
11. CTGP spokesperson needed to be a guest speaker at a class at WCSC.
The course I teach at WCSU (as an Adjunct) is entitled: "World Government, Cultures & Economies". Three of the books we're using are: The Culture Struggle by Michael Parenti, The Clash of Civilizations by Samuel Huntington & Globalization and its Discontents by Joseph Stiglitz. It is an introductory political science course wherein we have to cover a lot of subjects, primarily international relations and international economics within our ever corporate driven globalized world. So in an effort to spice up the subject matter and make it relevant to our current lives, I was looking for a Guest Lecturer who could comfortably discuss the relationship between international economics and the Iraq war. Our class meets M&W 330-445pm in Room ... on the WCSU White Street campus near downtown Danbury...a block and a half away from the MetroNorth Danbury station and about a half mile from the I-84 highway (take Exit 5). Best time to guest lecture would be this week or next week.
