All faculty members who teach full-time should receive a copy of the Faculty
Self-Study Questionnaire on Friday, February 1. If you do not receive one,
notify Dick Kindred, ext. 300. Faculty perceptions are an important source
of information for many of the Self-Study Committees, and the time you spend
on the questionnaire will be appreciated. Please complete and return it to
box 1283 by Thursday, February 7 (sooner if possible).
RELOCATION OF UNIVERSITY PRINT SHOP: The University Print Shop will be

those days. Thank you very much. /s/ H.G. Edmondson
TIAA/CREF:
Many of our faculty and staff are placing their retirement plan contributions in a combination of TIAA/CREF accounts. TIAA/CREF ranks as the
second largest pension plan in the United States according to a survey as
of September 30, 1979 conducted by the publication PENSIONS AND INVESTMENTS.
TIAA/CREF had assets of 14.3 billion and follows the California public
employees' system which had 17.9 billions of assets. In descending order,
other pensions systems in the top ten were: General Motors, State of New
York, New York City employees and teachers, New York State teachers, General
Electric, State of New Jersey, Fort Motor Company, and Western Electric.
