Thanks to gap funding made available by Steve Leslie, Provost of UT Austin, the TGDP will be able to continue its operations until August 2008. During this time, we will focus our efforts on increasing the number of interviews recorded each month. Additionally, we will intensify our fundraising campaign to build the Texas German Dialect Endowment at UT Austin.
