all of the hard work that has been done to increase our enrollment, I wish to
invite all faculty, staff and students to a picnic on Thursday, October 11,
2007, from 11:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. in the circle on the East Lawn of the
MSC. Our fall enrollment has gone over the 9,000 mark—the
highest it has been since 1978—and each of you has played a part in
reaching this goal! Please join the university administration as we serve
you in appreciation of your dedicated service to your university and to
commemorate this exciting milestone. Free tickets will be provided to
each department for faculty, staff and graduate and teaching assistants, and
students on the meal plan will be able to use their meal tickets. All
other students can pick up a ticket at the picnic. In the event of rain,
the event will be held in the American and Texas Ballrooms.</span></font><font
