Adding on to Louise's comment, I'll mention that they're currently trying
to find a qualified instructor to teach a basic IA course, which they
haven't been able to offer for a while because they don't have a faculty
member on hand who can teach it. If anyone wants to nominate themselves or
knows of other potential instructors, feel free to let me know offlist, and
I'll pass the names along to the program coordinators.
