This is a request for discussion for gatewaying the mailing list 
T-ASSIST (@unvma.bitnet) and the USENET newsgroup SOC.COLLEGE.TEACHING-ASST. 
I have enclosed a small description about the mailing list. If there are
no significant concerns for providing this gateway within the next 7 days, 
(June 1) we can go ahead and create this gateway. 

Thanks

T-ASSIST mailing list:
=====================
	
University teaching assistants have a  variety of responsibilities. The purpose
of this  discussion group  is to  give teaching  assistants the  opportunity to
discuss the roles of being a teacher and a student. Some questions to stimulate
our conversation include:

What kinds of teaching techniques do you use? How can you motivate students and
stimulate discussion? How  can you promote a supportive  classroom climate? How
can you set expectations for students that are high enough to challenge but not
to overwhelm? How can you review  for tests, write examinations and assignments
and grade? How can you balance being a teacher and student?

I assume you have discussed this in soc.college.teaching-asst? I don't think
there would be any problem but there have been cases in the past where 
gateways suddenly appeared without discussion and generate a fair amount of
flamage.

Yeah, I am doing that right now. I am following the Guidelines posted on
creating a gateway and it requires me to get the approval of the list
owner and listserver maintainer, which I had done already. Then it
requires me to post to bit.admin, the mailing list and
soc.college.teaching-asst, which it said can go on simultaneously. So
I had posted messages to all three forums simultaneously .

Thanks
