I have been trying to subscribe to the NCURA list serves for some time now, and every time I go to the "Subscribe to list-serv" web page, it is perpetually "under construction". Does any one have any other ideas as to how I might be able to subscribe to the PUI and pre-award list servs? Many thanks -- Susan Ericson-West, M.Ed.
