Dear Mark Twain Forum Members, Last weekend, the Center for Mark Twain Studies held its Seventh Quarry Farm Symposium, entitled "American Humor and Matters of Empire." Judith Yaross Lee was organizer and chairperson of this thought-provoking gathering of American Humor scholars. A number of resources have been made available from last weekend's event on MarkTwainStudies.org, including the keynote address, all presentations, a downloadable version of the program with abstracts, and biographies of all presenters. You can access these resources here: https://marktwainstudies.com/events/2020-quarry-farm-symposium/ I'd also like to take this opportunity to promote the 2021 Quarry Farm Symposium (Friday, October 1 to Sunday, October 3, 2021), which will celebrate the 150th Anniversary of *Roughing It*. CMTS will have more information about the 2021 symposium in the near future. Take care, Joe Lemak Dr. Joseph Lemak (he, him, his) Director of the Center for Mark Twain Studies Assistant Professor of History Elmira College The Rose Office, Cowles Hall Elmira, New York 14901 (607) 735-1941 MarkTwainStudies.org, the official website of CMTS
