STUDENT ALUMNI COUNCIL PARTNERS WITH NEIGHBORHOOD
At this time of Thanksgiving The Student Alumni Council is working with  
the M.L. King Neighborhood Association to help citizens living right in  
our own area.  The M.L.King Neighborhood Association is hoping to bring  
joy to local citizens on fixed income, those who may be disabled and  
many senior citizens.  Since UTC is a vital part of this neighborhood  
SAC believes it is important to support the activities of the area.
    SAC is asking for your help in preparing 32 Thanksgiving baskets.
Here is what we need by Friday, November 19
At least 32 cans of candied yams
At least 32 cans of green-beans or peas
At least 32 cans of cranberry sauce

You may bring your donations to the alumni house located in The Patten  
House, 801 Oak Street between 8 am and 5 pm. You may call 425-4785 for  
more information. Thank you for your generosity at this time of year.

shaped notes.  The hymn books will be provided.  The class will work on  
singing the shapes and recognizing the note intervals.  At the last  
meeting we were able to learn several songs, but the leader will work

(Patten House - 2nd Floor) is Wednesday, December 1st.  Items on the
wish list should cost no more than $15 per child.  When you pick a

However, there is no limit to the number of names you can choose.  Each  
gift must be gift wrapped with the child's name and code on it.  If  
there are multiple gifts for a child, all the gifts must be attached or
