问题  
W: I’m here because there’s something I don’t understand. I set an announcement for an event. And this morning I checked the events section of the university’s website. And nothing, there is no mention of it.
M: And when did you submit this request?
W: Last Wednesday. I followed the instructions very carefully.  I know announcements should be submitted three business days ahead of the posting day.
M: And what’s it for?
W: A poetry reading.
M: Oh, OK. When is it?
W: In three days. It is an author from France we have been trying to get for a while.  And now that he has finally agreed to come, no one will be there. He is teaching in New York City this year. We were able to sell him on the idea by promising there being a nice size crowd. I felt confident about that because I know how enthusiastic our group is.
M: And your group...do you have a name?
W: Um... it is kind of a loose group, you know, just a bunch of students in the French Department who are interested in French literature. There’s no formal structure or anything.
M: OK. And it is a recognized group?
W: No. But the French Department is funding this.
M: All right. Hold on a second while I check. Well, it looks like we did receive your announcement last Wednesday. Uh...it looks like the editors must have decided not to include your event in this week’s listings.
W: Not included? Why?
M: Well, we don’t post things automatically. We get so many requests that we couldn’t possibly post them all. So events that are thought to be too specialized, without the potential for really wide appeal won’t be posted.
