The calendar section in cludes two pages for each week, with Monday through Thursday on one page and Friday through Sunday on the facing page. University events are listed on their appropriate days, with additional space available for re cording assignments and other acti vities. Also included in the calendars are selected campus and area telephone numbers, a campus map, a local church directory, and information on the MSG, University Center and major student organizations and uni versity services. An added feature of the non-profit booklets are discount coupons, which are good toward MSC prog rams and services. Macha said the committee wanted to provide a service that would be useful and appealing to most stu dents — present and former. Part of the appeal should come from caricatures drawn by veterinary school student Wade Bradshaw, Macha said. The artwork appears throughout the calendar along with more than 20 photographs. Another consideration was to keep the cost down, Macha said. To help offset this cost, the businesses listed in the telephone directory section each paid a fee. But the committee had hoped to use a vinyl cover for the booklets and couldn’t, as this would have pushed the price above $3, she said. The committee will try to obtain student service funds to help finance the calendars in the future, Macha said.

For example, the map does not include the newer buildings on campus, such as the modular dormitories. Also the num ber of activity listings for the spring and summer is much lower than the fall listings. Student feedback is being soli cited on the calendars, Macha said. The back page of the booklet is a postage paid, reply form which calendar purchasers may return with comments. In addition, individuals who return the forms will receive updates of the University calendar. The two thousand calendars are on sale in the MSC Bookstore, the main hallway and the Student Programs Office in Room 216.
