Sincerely, ...-/41//111''-<.--'- ~~\.Alt_n Dean of Students cc: Your parents not mix to the student writing, "I was overcome by an uncon· trollable urge to sleep after my 9:00 class due to extreme fatigue , which was due to possible excessive studying. Condition might possibly referred to as narcolepsy." Various chapel excuses do not show such in-depth thought by students saying, "Friday 13th unlucky day!", " I had to work these days to pay parking tickets, " "Honey· moon on 22nd," "Bank emergency," or "Was in jail." Left RESULTING in this warning letter, excessive chapel absences can be costly. Pierce, Sylyia • Hixson , TN Pigg, Jimm.ta • Peoria, IL PiII.r, Bruc•• Neenah. WI Pill.r, Mark.

It is quite in· teresting to look on the printout (compu ter , of course) of absences to find you are responsible for missing 18 days out of 15. A nursing student was recorded absent 28 days yet never received a notice of delinquency. It would be understating things to say that "Computer Carl" isn't always on his toes. Student Evalinda Ziegler rebuked Carl as she wrote, "Dear Carl: Why weren't you in chapel? I was part of the A Cappella program. Tenderly, Eve. " -Resa Zorn Miller-Seawel ~ 267
