News from the Field / Nouvelles du milieu

Abstract

Once again your department chairs have submitted their annual overview of comings and goings, awards and events. We present this information in the language(s) of choice of each institution, and we include almost every tidbit of information received. As readers will quickly note, some places have more news than others. Frequently this is tied to the size of a history department and other times it is tied to what has been identified as newsworthy by a particular chair. Regardless, we hope you will be accepting of the incredible variety in the reports that follow and think about what you would like your institution to include next year. We really do want to recount the news of every department in the country.
