Unauthorized solicitors have been reported visiting faculty offices on the
campus with the purpose of buying unneeded books from faculty members.
University policy does not permit solicitors nor salespersons on campus except by personal invitation to an individual faculty member's office. To
assist faculty members in purging their shelves of unwanted books, the Hatter
Bookstore has arranged with a very reputable company to have one of its representatives on campus October 16, 1979. You may bring your books to the
Bookstore or have the representative visit your office by notifying Mr. Johnson
at the Bookstore.

The first Chapel of the year was very impressive by virtue of the music, the
word from the President and the attendance. I encourage Deans to encourage
Departmental Chairmen, and Departmental Chairmen to encourage students to
attend Chapel each week. Many who benefit from the sense of community
engendered by Chapel attendance do not realize how much greater the benefits
would be for all of us with greater attendance.

STUDENTS, ADMINISTRATORS, FACULTY, STAFF, SPOUSES, ETC., ETC... Evaluations
of previous Winter Term Programs have indicated each year that more Self-
Enrichment Courses were needed. Please consider sharing your special interest,
hobby, or talent with a group of students by teaching a Self-Enrichment Course
during Winter Term '80. Call Ext. 312 by Friday, Sept. 12, so that we can
discuss your idea, present it to the Winter Term Committee, and list your
course in the brochure.
