The Bulletin- The 2000-2001 Stetson University Bulletin can be found at the following address:
bttJ3:^/www!.stetson.edu/admissions/bulletinOO01 /. Paper copies should be ordered through the Admissions
Department. FYI-Changes to be reflected in the 2001-2002 Bulletin will be due around the first week of
December. Changes made at that time are the only ones for which we do not have to pay extra. Please try
to confirm all changes by December.
Also, I'm always looking for interesting photos to be included in the Bulletin. If your department or program
has had or will have any photo opportunities, please try to forward a particularly good photo to me. I'll be
happy to try to highlight your students or some aspect of your program in the photos in the Bulletin.
