COMMENTS:

1. Seniors: It's not too late, if you act immediately, to join Sigma Xi. See Joel right away if interested.

1. NAS On-line Career Planning Information: The National Academy of Sciences has opened a new on-line career planning center to help beginning scientists and engineers make career and education decisions and find employment. It can be accessed at http://www2.nas.edu/cpc

2. Student Workers Welcome to Spring Term. For those new to the department, and those who have forgotten, here are a few things to know. Many jobs start this week, all will be going by the second week. In the next day or two please contact the professor of the class for whom you'll be work. They will give you the details of the job. Time sheets will be kept in the black 3-ring binder which in turn is kept on a shelf to the south of the mailboxes in Olin 309. Please see Doug in 219 if you have any questions about your job, your work hours, or how to fill out the time sheets. (The College requires that they be filled out correctly before they accept them. Remember, Correct + Complete = $Paycheck on Payday$)
