SERMEISS March 2008

If you are interested in Islam and Middle-Eastern Studies, and you are near Columbia, South Carolina, be sure to attend the SERMEISS meeting March 28-30. A friend and colleague of mine coordinates the group, and he does a fine job making the meetings stimulating. If I am able to attend, I am most interested in hearing "Islamic Education and Religious Extremism in Central Asia," by Gulmiza Seitalieva (Emory University).
