"The first public Mass in more than sixty years was celebrated in my county seat of Shandong Province the day before Gaudete Sunday in Advent, December 14, 2013.

Hello H-Education network,
You may notice a change in how your email notifications from H-Education look. Perhaps you've tried to submit content to the listserv address, only to have it rejected.
Recently, the H-Education listserv ceased to exist. Now H-Education is part of the H-Net Commons, an online platform. This is happening to all H-Net listservs in time; we were just the right size and came up alphabetically to be "migrated" this month.
Here's a quick H-Net explanation for you:
I'm the founder of the Campus Election Engagement Project, a national non-partisan project that I launched in 2008, and whose efforts reached 750 colleges and universities in 2012. We work to help college and university faculty, administrators, and staff get their students involved in the election, helping them register, volunteer, learn about the issues, and turn out at the polls. And we'd love to see you help engage your school. We're launching outreach efforts in a dozen states, and hoping to add more.
How do we engage America’s 20 million students in America’s elections? The Campus Election Engagement Project (CEEP) talking with over 500 campuses in 2008 and 750 in 2012 to do exactly that, with three quarters of them implementing new election engagement approaches as the result of our suggestions. In 2013, we ran a highly successful pilot project for Virginia’s statewide off-year elections.
We have made the great switch. H-Law is now on the Digital Commons. If all had gone according to plan, you should be seeing this as an "H-Net Notification" in your email. You can also view this by going directly to the H-Law Webpage -- http://networks.h-net.org/h-law. To reply to a discussion post such as this, you would need to click on the title of the post in the email notice which would take you to the webpage and then click on "reply to post." Remember, if all you want to do is read H-Law traffic, you don't need to do anything.
