A Thank You Note
Dear Student Body,
I just wanted to thank all of the wonderful drivers who park in the Woodbury Campus Center main lot. Over the years my car has sustained a wealth of dings and dents from you parking too close and slamming your door into mine. I recently bought a newer vehicle and within a month received the biggest scratch yet! Just the other day I watched someone slam into someone else's bumper and drive away to find another spot!
I'm just fed up with the general lack of respect for other people and their property. We're all busy and in a hurry to get to class, but that doesn't make it okay to squeeze into a spot that's too small, double park or smack someone's car with yours.
Please try and respect your fellow students and their vehicles.

Free Press Never Looked Better!
From 1989-1991 I was the executive editor of the Free Press. We had a bunch of Macs networked and thought desktop-publishing was the greatest invention!
I gotta tell you, when I poke around the Free Press online today I get flashbacks and goosebumps...you are doing such a terrific job with technology we only dreamed of.
Moreover, the print-version of the paper has never looked better. You are doing such a great job!
And remember, as you get ready for finals and field bad criticisms and, most importantly, prepare to pass the torch to an executive editor-to-be, don't let anyone get you down!
Keep up the good work!

Thank you Free Press
To the editor and staff at the Free Press:
Thank you so much for all your support with calendar listings, articles and terrific reporting on subjects relating to women and gender studies programming, including the wonderful article on Kate Bornstein (Oct. 29), co-curricular events, the Freedom Bus to LAC for a convocation event (April 7), and Thinking Matters (April 21).
Getting the word out to the USM student community is important information, and you all have done a fabulous job!
