The University of Bremen (Germany) has a strong linguistics department and great interest in the former German colonies which include the Northern Marianas. The University held an international conference on Colonial and Postcolonial Linguistics from September 3-8 and invited Guam friar Fr. Eric Forbes, OFM Cap to be part of the panel on Chamorro, the language of the Mariana Islands. Joining him were Dr. Robert Underwood, President of the University of Guam, and Dr. Rosa Salas Palomo, a professor at the same university.
