P ARTICIPANTS N EEDED FOR R ESEARCH
S TUDY We invite you to participate in the
"Talking About Social Controversies" (T.A.S.C.) project, a national research study exploring how
Americans think about important issues our society is grappling with today. Many of these issues have been the subject of major news coverage and political debate. However, we are interested in the opinions and viewpoints of everyday American citizens, not media or political elites. Participating in this research project involves being in a focus group with 5-10 other individuals. You and the other members will be asked to share your thoughts on a social issue like genetic engineering, discussion will take about 90 minutes and will be held at St.
Ignatius Church. As a token of appreciation for your time, you will receive $20.00. If you would like to participate in this research project, please email your name and contact information to
Kyle Green at green894@umn.edu.

I NFORMATION ABOUT THE A RTS -B ASED P ROGRAM
The ABP operates from a pedagogy which is experiential. In order to make it work, for both catechists and children, the class size needs to be such that all involved will receive the instruction and attention they deserve. In order to be fair to all of the families who are involved, we need to limit the number of children who are able to register to 60. One of the requirements for participating in this program will be attendance at the retreat (October 21-23). It is NOT a requirement to stay overnight at the retreat. If you were NOT a participant in the program last year (2010-2011), you are required to meet with Amy Chapman prior and in order to register for this program.
