Non-people information

WLC Faculty members have projects and grants in many areas, among them:

The Monterey Bay World Language Project or MBWLP (formerly MBFLP) has its home in WLC, and is sponsored through the California World Language Project (CWLP) as part of the California Subject Matter Projects (CSMP). The project provides professional development opportunities for tri-county language teachers and professionals.
The DigitalStream Conference from 1999-2008 and electronic Proceedings from 2005-2008 brought nearly 350 language technology education professionals to CSUMB each year to network and share ideas. Note, paperback issues are still available.
