Dear List-
I'm putting together a 5-week course with UC Extension running from July
31-Sept 2, giving students 8-10 credit hours for two history classes (in
case you have students from UC or non-UC schools who might be interested).
The courses will be taught in Hue at the recently constituted Foreign
Language College there. In preparing the brochure, I need some 300-dpi or
better images of some familiar central Vietnamese sites: citadel, people on
bicycles, Hoi An historic buildings, Marble Mtn, China Beach, former DMZ,
Ming Mang's tomb, etc. I'm currently dislocated from own stacks of photos
and hoping to get some images in about 10 days. I'll credit contributors as
photographers on each print and probably use about 6 or 7. I can't offer
any monetary rewards, but I can buy you coffee or beer at CSEAS or AAS
events this spring if you see me. I'm not sure the vsg list allows
attachments (Judith?) so it may be best to send them to me.
Thanks, and Chuc Mung Nam Moi!
David

David,
VSG does allow attachments, but I don't recommend sending large ones, in
respect for those with slow access. Also, for copyright reasons, it would
be best to send them directly to you David.

David,
Check with University of Hawaii which, some years ago, had compiled a data base of images from Vietnam. But I can tell you in all un-scholarly honesty that google-images is a wonderful tool for finding images. Just right click on your mouse and save them to a power point presentation and voila! Copyright? never mind. But I'll take a beer for the suggestion!
