Sorry to say, friends, but the CoALL Holiday Party, which was scheduled for 5:30pm on Tuesday, Dec. 6 at the University of Colorado Law School, has been postponed. The weather tomorrow evening is supposed to be snowy and cold, and travel to Boulder will likely be difficult.

The CoALL Executive Board has yet to name a new date for the event but is looking to reschedule for early in the New Year.
