Notes from the Center
Every so often, we will use this page to make announcements, pass
along comments, and generally bring up matters--not necessarily of
great consequence but of passing interest. In a sense, it is our version
of the guestbook, which you are
welcome to sign and to leave messages on for our readers.

Clyde and I are very excited that after a hiatus of a few years we are bringing the Imagination Conference back to NJCU and a newly renovated student union building. To those of you that came faithfully to our Conference year after year, we can’t wait to see you. We are also looking forward to finally meeting face-to-face with our colleagues overseas. The upcoming Conference promises to be our most ambitious to date. It will be a two-day international conference with presentations that will appeal to researchers and practitioners from pre-school through higher education. In fact, we are aiming for 100 presentations and panels over the two days! We have already identified two excellent keynote speakers, Dr. Karen Gallas, bestselling author on the imagination and literacy, and, Dr. M. Jerry Weiss, award-winning children’s author and retired Distinguished Professor of Communications Keep checking our website for further updates!

The "X" Point: As with Volume 8, Volume 9 of The Journal of the Imagination will also have the role of a free-standing anthology complete with illustrations executed by Ms. Madelynne Delarama, a Graduate Student at New Jersey City University. The title of that anthology is The "X" Point: Where the Imagination is Rejected. Following is the introduction to that issue.
