Welcome to the 2015 Sandanona Conference on the Teaching and Learning of Languages at SIT Graduate Institute! Thank you for coming! Have a seat; make yourself comfortable. Now, we know: you treasure your time. You should! It’s a precious thing. We get it. We’re with you. But listen: attending this three-day confer-ence will surely be—especially considering the breadth of topics it will cover: from language and gender to DIY corpora, from learning in Tibet to teaching in Afghanistan, from the distortion of reality to its augmentation—the best possible use of your time imaginable. You’ll be glad you came, eager to stay, and sad to go. There will be multitalented keynote and distinguished plenary speakers. There will be hiking and bowling, yoga and meditation. There will be good cof-fee, Thai food, and cake. It will be time spent well, spent fully—especially once you consider with whom it will be spent. We’re MAT 46. We’re from Afghanistan, Bolivia, Korea, Mauritania, Ni-caragua, Tibet, and the US. Collectively, we speak over a dozen languages and are learning a dozen more. We’re Peace Corps volunteers and Fulbright schol-ars. We’re artists and athletes and activists. We’re readers and writers. We’re lovers of animals and votaries of nature. We’re yogis and foodies. We swim and cycle and sing. We dance and dream. We knit mittens and climb mountains. We’re intelligent, compassionate, and creative. We’re mindful, patient, and spontaneous. We’re humble, hopeful, and bold. We’ve bungeed and skydived. We’ve snacked on scorpions in Beijing, scaled Wyoming’s Grand Teton, and run with the bulls in Pamplona. We’re students and linguists and teachers. We’re educators of the English language with hungry minds and hearts as wide as sky. Putdifferently:haveyoueverseenblackopal?Haveyouseenwhat’sknownasits“fire”—thoseexplosionsofpolychromaticlightagainstaback-drop of deepest space? Each stone, studied closely, a singularity containing semblances of whole worlds, intimations of other starlit universes? Each a new palmsized cosmology?
