As long as we’re marking calendars and talking Latin, it seems like a good time to remind folks that National Latin Teachers Recruitment Week (in the U.S.) is coming up the first week of March and that their Facebook page has moved (which you might not be aware of). Of course, the place for all the materials are at the National Committee for Latin and Greek page (aka promotelatin.org … click on the NLTRW link for specifics). That said, an observation: NLTRW is always the first week of March; I had never heard of this International Mother Language Day (see next post) before this week. If NLTRW could move up a week or two, it seems like it could very well be a promotional match made in heaven (imagine a week promoting mother languages — especially Latin — followed by a week of teacher recruitment).
