He still shows up in the directory as as "Visiting Scholar", but I don't think he is here anymore. There are several other individuals who refer to him, but nothing of his in terms of a contact. He does have a contact page on the Wayne State University site. http://linguistics.wayne.edu/faculty/ramer.html and I would venture that his email address at U of M (manaster@umich.edu) is still valid or it wouldn't be in the directory still. mu'omi'e .aleks.
