		<description><![CDATA[Hi, 

I am a graduate student at the University of Chicago and I am considering a research project regarding conversation and debate in the context of PTA and similar associations.  You appear to be exceptionally knowledgeable on the intersection of education and parenting and I was wondering if you&#039;d be willing to have a brief phone conversation with me.

I&#039;m hesitant to publish my number here but if you might be willing please drop me a line at dhess@uchicago.edu.  Don&#039;t worry that you might not know enough or the &quot;right kinds&quot; of things; I&#039;m just interested in your own experience.

If other parents reading this feel that they have interesting experiences or opinions regarding conversations and debate in PTA-type settings, you are also invited to send me a brief email!

Many thanks, 
Deirdre Hess]]></description>
