   Dear Colleagues,


   Summer 2005 is shaping up to be an exciting time in Las Cruces and we would
   like you and your students to be a part of it.  We will hold a five week
   summer camp, described in the enclosed brochure, that builds on our previous
   CS summer camps, and has substantial financial support for both student and
   faculty participants.  Our goal is to promote Computer Science in general
   and to highlight the technical and career opportunities that become possible
   with advanced studies at NMSU.

   We would love to come visit you and describe our department, the summer
   program, and additional partnership and articulation opportunities that may
   be of value to your CS-related programs and to your students.  If you have
   questions, or would like to schedule a visit from one of our Department
   members, please contact Dr. Clinton Jeffery (505-646-3480,
   jeffery@cs.nmsu.edu) or Dr. Enrico Pontelli (505-646-6239,
   epontell@cs.nmsu.edu).

   We wish you a prosperous 2005, and look forward to hearing from you!


   Best regards,




   Desh Ranjan
   Professor and Department Head
