[Linda Goddard]

Dear Young-key Kim-Renaud:

Thank you for returning my call last week concerning the Korean Humanities 
Colloquium in recognition of your mother's work. I look forward to this 
colloquium with great enthusiasm.

Via email will you send me the itinary for the colloquium and any other 
information that you think I should have? Also, will this colloquium be 
presented in English or Korean?

Again, I look forward to meeting you in person.

Linda Goddard
