The Gleitmans in New York City

May 28 is the deadline to RSVP for The Wit and Wisdom of Drs. Henry and Lila Gleitman, a dual lecture to be given June 4 in Manhattan under the auspices of the School of Arts and Sciences. Dr. Lila Gleitman's A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words--But That's the Trouble: Children's Learing of a First Vocabulary is paired with her husband's Fifty Years Before the Masses: A Short History of Psych 1 (the introuctory course he has taught 100 times at Penn in his 50 years on the faculty).

The lectures will be given at the New York Yacht Club, 37 West 44th Street. Seating is limited, SAS notes; hence the RSVP request (call 898-5262 or e-mail mastroie@ben.dev.upenn.edu).
