LINCOLN – The holiday shopping season opened on a brisk note as shoppers swamped stores to scarf up Black Friday bargains at area retail stores.
Some 500 customers formed a line that snaked around the corner of Target at Lincoln Mall before the doors opened at 1 a.m. Friday.
The manager said the store brought in extra personnel to handle the crowds and distribute store "maps" to help customers find what they were looking for.
"We really lucked out," said the manager, who identified herself only as Stephanie. "It's been peaceful and there haven't been any problems. People have actually been thanking us for how orderly it was."
Hours after the onslaught began, a steady but slower stream of customers was still pushing loaded-up shopping carts out the door with heavily discounted flat-screen TVs, computer tablets and cookware.
"That was a great deal," said Dawn Baker of Providence as she peeled back a shopping bag hiding a box of non-stick pots and pans. "I got that for $40. You usually can't find a whole set like that for less than a hundred dollars."
Gabriela Nunes of North Providence found herself unexpectedly wheeling a 32-inch LED flat-screen out the door. She wasn't planning on buying a TV yesterday, Nunes said, but when she saw the price, she couldn't say no.
"It's a Christmas present for myself," she said. "I figured I might as well splurge."
At Sears, a few miles away from the mall at Woonsocket's Walnut Hill Plaza, the store opened at 12:30 a.m. and workers reported an unusually heavy turnout.
Workers said 135 customers were outside waiting to get in when the doors opened. They quickly snatched up some of the store's most heavily promoted bargains, including an assortment of flat-screen TVs in different sizes, some as low as $97.
"Most of it sold out in 10 minutes," an assistant manager in electronics said.
In other states, Black Friday seeped into Thanksgiving as some of the big box stores, including Walmart and Target, opened well before midnight on the holiday, but Rhode Island's "blue laws" kept that from happening. Walmart, the nation's largest retailer, opened as early as 8 p.m. on Thanksgiving Day in states with fewer restrictions, triggering widespread protests from employees. Some consumers aren't wild about the move, either, but others are all for it.
It remains to be seen whether the controversy hurts Black Friday sales. The National Retail Federation seems more concerned about the timing of Thanksgiving than when stores opened their doors. In a cyclical quirk of the calendar, Thanksgiving couldn't have possibly fallen any earlier this year – earlier, perhaps, than some shoppers typically get in the spirit for holiday spending.
"Not since 2007 has Thanksgiving come this early, but the calendar creep won't keep millions of eager holiday shoppers from visiting their favorite stores and websites over Black Friday weekend," the NRF said.
According to a preliminary Black Friday shopping survey, up to 147 million people plan to shop through the Black Friday weekend, a slight decrease from the 152 million who planned to do so last year, according to the NRF.
"Though the Black Friday tradition is here to stay, there's no question that it has changed in recent years," said Matthew Shay, president of the National Retail Federation. "It's critical for retail companies to constantly evolve as consumers do, and right now shoppers want great deals, good value, and convenience – exactly what we're seeing with this season's late and early openings, price-matching, layaway, and mobile offerings."
Black Friday is often viewed as an invention of the big box stores, but online merchants and small businesses have all signed on to distinct campaigns to hold onto their share of the consumer's shopping dollar. Cyber Monday marks its seventh anniversary next week and is quickly becoming the biggest shopping day of the year for online merchants, according to Shop.org. Meanwhile, independent brick and mortar stores around the country have joined the "Small Business Saturday" campaign, which is celebrating its third anniversary today.
Members of the Northern RI Chamber of Commerce and the Blackstone Valley Independent Business Alliance have signed onto Small Business Saturday for the first time this year.
While Small Business Saturday may sound, well, small, it was actually launched by a giant of the personal credit industry, American Express. The company promotes supporting small businesses as the civic-minded thing to do.
"You could be helping local entrepreneurs offer more jobs, which in turn invigorate the economy," said American Express. "As a consumer, you are a key part in helping small businesses thrive."
If Black Friday has an ominous ring to it, it may be because the first time the phrase was coined it referred to the crash of the stock market in 1869. Black Friday is still about money – not losing it, however, but making it.
In the retail world, Black Friday is the official start of the holiday shopping season, a time of year when sales push merchants out of the red ink on their accounting ledgers and into the black zone of profits. It is often said that Black Friday is the busiest shopping day of the year, but it's not always true. Sometimes it is, retailers say; other times it lags behind the last Saturday before Christmas.

With over forty years of broadcast news experience, Mike Mitchell is this area's most experienced radio journalist.
Rufus T. Raspberry is a full-time chicken farmer and part-time radio extraordinare! He's been part of the Thunder morning show for over 15 years! He's never been one to mince words--he says he's "a talker with an opinion," which is sometimes hillarious! You really don't want to miss the show between 6-8am because you never know what he's going to say!
I got my start in radio by accident in 1988 in Clay County when I was handed a microphone in the 2nd quarter of a high school football game and the rest as they say is history. I did radio part time for 10 years covering sports for the most part and then went full time radio in 1998 with Alabama 100 in Anniston. I've progressed from part time on air to operations manager and morning show host and it's been a great ride.
The Man, The Myth, The Legend. . . That's our Big Al! Born and raised in Calhoun Co, he's been in radio for over 10 years, DJ'n, and calling sports. He's a regular feature on the Saturday Morning Sports Hour with G, and also a big Auburn fan (War Eagle!). Al will get you through the end of your work day and drive you home with Bama's Better Country from 2-6pm!
I DJ'd part time for Birmingham stations for 10 years, starting with an oldies station and then moving to country. Radio is my passion! I absolutely eat, sleep and dream radio. I love it! Good times by Alan Jackson has been my theme song for a while. But I was definitely a rocker growing up with The Beatles, Kansas, Yes, and Stix. In my humble opinion, country music today is a lot like rock-n-roll was in the 70s. Regarding new groups, I really like Jason Aldean, Carrie Underwood, Keith Urban, Little Big Town, and Lady Antebellum. Older acts I like include Brad Paisley, Trace Adkins, Alan Jackson, George Strait and Alabama. I really can't mention them all. I am a people person--that is I love watching people and interacting with everybody. I always try to make for a great time, wherever I am. Truth is always stranger than fiction, listeners are quite often funnier than I am, and I am not afraid to exploit that.

Targeting Interventions at Venues Where Risk of HIV Transmission is High (PLACE)
- Full Text View
- Tabular View
- No Study Results Posted
- Disclaimer
- How to Read a Study Record
The aim of this study is to investigate whether distribution of condoms and condom demonstrations by youth peer educators in venues where people meet new sexual partners in Livingstone, Zambia, leads to increased condom use among guests socializing in these venues.
Other: Condom distribution and peer education
Phase 1
|Study Type:
|Study Design:
|Allocation: Non-Randomized
Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment
Masking: Open Label
Primary Purpose: Prevention
|Official Title:
|Targeting Interventions at Venues Where Risk of HIV Transmission is High
- Condom use with last sexual partner met in this venue [ Time Frame: in post-intervention survey (1 year after start of intervention) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Guests socializing in venues where people meet new sexual partners are asked about condom use with the last sexual partner met in the venue where interview conducted
- Condom availability in the last 12 months in venues where people meet new sexual partners [ Time Frame: in post-intervention survey (1 year after start of intervention) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]One person representing each venue included in the survey is asked about the availability of condoms in the venue in the last 12 months
|Study Start Date:
|February 2009
|Study Completion Date:
|March 2010
|Primary Completion Date:
|March 2010 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
|Assigned Interventions
Experimental: Condom distribution and peer education
Youth peer educators distribute condoms and conduct condom demonstration in venues where people meet new sexual partners, i.e. bars, night clubs, sherbeens, guest houses
Other: Condom distribution and peer education
Condom distribution and condom demonstrations by youth peer educators at least twice a week
|No Intervention: Business as usual
Detailed Description:
In countries where the HIV prevalence is high, focusing on high risk places such as venues where people meet new sexual partners is probably more effective in reducing the transmission rate of HIV than targeting interventions just at perceived high risk groups. A survey conducted in 2005 in places where people met new sexual partners in Livingstone found that guests socializing there were engaging in high risk sex, but condoms were not always available in the venues. In this intervention study, youth peer educators will distribute condoms and demonstrate condom use in venues where people meet new sexual partners. After the intervention has run for a year, condom use among guests socializing in such venues in the intervention township will be compared with condom use among people socializing in similar venues in a comparison township.
|Ages Eligible for Study:
|18 Years and older
|Genders Eligible for Study:
|Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
Inclusion Criteria:
- Socializing in a venue where people are said to be meeting new sexual partners
- Age 18 years and above

Hiatus status: Finishedon June 10, 2012 at 12:00 am
Hey folks, I'm back. It's been an extremely refreshing several months, and I've gotten a lot accomplished during the hiatus, so thank you so much for your patience.
As the comic above states, my new home, for now anyway, is Farvatoons.com. I've already put a few strips up, so check it out.
That said, don't forget about ol' AFBlues.com. I've joined a comic group with a few other big names in the "military cartooning" industry, if there is such a thing, and soon they'll begin overhauling this site and a few others to make them just that much better. Something happened here a few months back and we lost a lot of the coding, so the site is looking a little derelict and until the relaunch I have no intention of fixing it.
Please don't register (actually, you can't) at the new site. Your registration info, including membership status, will transfer over soon. Year-long memberships will be reset when the new Member's Section is open.
Lastly, at this time please go through this site – especially the Member's Section if you have access – and save any comic you really like. I have no intention of taking the archives offline, but I can't promise they'll be accessible during the rebuild.
Ok, more news will be announced at – wait for it – Site B. (A tip of the hat to those of you who understand that reference.)

By RICHARD SHAWSun Advocate publisher
Last spring two young men who went to Carbon High were busted for having controlled substances in their possession one day during their school lunch break. It happened downtown and they got in a good deal of trouble.
These students were not what many people picture as the type that might have trouble with the law, particularly with drugs. They were what many felt were "good kids" with no history of trouble and they got good grades. At least one of them was an athlete at the school, and had a good reputation.
When all the trouble was done and over with, Carbon High Principal Bruce Bean had one of the young men come into his office and interview him. What he said struck a chord with Bean.
"I asked him if we had been doing random tests on athletes for drugs if that would have made a difference and the kid told me 'Yes,'' said Bean during an interview in his office on Thursday morning. "He told me that it would have given him a good reason to say no."
Carbon High has a random drug testing policy for athletics, but it hasn't been used since around 1999. That very issue became the center of discussion at the Carbon School District Board meeting last
"There were some problems with the way it had to be performed," Bean told the board on that evening. "The technology that was available made it difficult and it wasn't as accurate."
Bean told the board that many schools in the state are now using random drug testing on students who participate in extracurricular activities. In many places it isn't just relative to athletes, but also to other activities like forensics and choir. Some of the schools doing testing are in Cache, Weber, Duchesne and Rich school districts.
Rich High School actually tests all students, but that is largely because it is a 1A school and almost everyone participates in some kind of extracurricular activity.
Bean told the board the he thinks the district would be best off to use an outside vendor for doing the testing. When the policy was in effect before it was done by school personnel, which at times became problematic, particularly when someone had to be with the person being testing in the restroom while they were providing a urine sample, to be sure the sample wasn't tainted or switched.
"Based on what we are thinking it would cost between $5,000-$6,000 per year," Bean told the board. "Ken Labrum (district security manager) and I have not found a school where they are doing it that it hasn't had a positive affect."
Bean said that he thought by what they had seen that such testing would probably be given to 10-15 percent of the students who were involved per month. He also said that confidentiality would be a very important part of any testing and results. He also said one of the keys would be that if tests came back positive it would result not as much in punitive measures, but in ways that would help students that need help.
Some of the board members had questions about how it could all be handled, considering drug policies that are already in place and how they would deal with the law. But as the discussion went on there became a difference between possession and being under the influence.
Beans said that just because a test might be positive that wouldn't mean a student would "have to be referred to court." The punitive part that would take place however, would be a suspension from the activity they are participating in and then follow up testing once they were allowed to resume participation in the activity.
"The testing would be involved with all sanctioned Utah High School Activities Association activities," said Bean. "This would also involve club sports as well. The key here is choice. Students choose to be in these activities, they are not required to do so."
Board President Wayne Woodward said that he thought it would be a good idea, but also added some things to what Bean had said.
"How we do this testing is important," he stated. "I favor a good deal of parental responsibility in this too."
Bean agreed and said in the interview on Thursday that he thought that was one of the most important things about doing such testing.
"Often parents don't realize their child has a problem," said Bean. "We sometimes get parents in my office who say their kids would never have this problem. We also have had those that we find out are doing drugs or alcohol along side their kids. Doing this with students that are involved in activities will help us to help parents to intercede with a kid who might have problems and no one knows it."
The horizon on drugs has also changed over the years. Drugs that get people high are not all that school administrators and the USHAA are concerning about. Performance enhancing drugs, substances that have made headlines with profession athletes, are also of a concern.
"In addition this also about safety," said Bean. "Other students have the right to know that students they may be competing with aren't under the influence."
A new policy is being formulated and is almost done. It follows basically a non-punitive approach, but instead works to have any student that is tested positive follow steps to get them out of the cycle of possible addiction or other problems.
"The impetus for this was my conversation with that student last year," said Bean. "But it also came from years of coaching and seeing the affects that such behavior had on students."
The board has asked Bean to come and advise them as the policy amendment progresses. He asked them in turn to see if they could find a way to finance such a testing program.
According to Bean the program would not go into effect this school year, but in 2013-14.

Mark Dailey visits the National Mentoring ProgramShare Tweet
The Toronto and Queen's NMP students, Mark Dailey, Molson Mentors, Community Partners and a few others!
The second year of the National Mentoring Program (NMP) has started with a group of new, excited young students from across Canada. Amir was out east last week at DalHousie to meet with the students, their Molson mentees and the charities. I joined the U of T and Queen's Uni. NMP'ers at the Board of Trade last Friday for a very delicious lunch (thank you for the veggie options Mary!) and a guest appearance from Mark Dailey, Citytv News Anchor.
Scott: Ready to rock – about to into Mark
Molson's Chief Legal and Public Affairs Officer, Scott Ewart addressed the students and introduced Mark who gave the students a brief overview of his philanthropic past, present and future – truly inspiring. His work in the community stretches over years, working with Big Brothers/Big Sisters, the Salvation Army, a spokesperson for the Prostate Cancer Research Foundation, and many more – a great inspiration to the students (and the rest of us!) who are about to embark on a community development and leadership journey.
Thank you to Mark for taking the time in his busy schedule to join Molson and the NMP.
Signing off…. @toniahammer, #theNMP

Seroquel (quetiapine) is an oral medication used primarily to treat schizophrenia. It is also used along with other medications to treat bipolar disorder and depression. It is part of a a class of medications called atypical antipsychotics.
Atypical antipsychotics were developed to be different from the older antipsychotic drugs that tended to cause extrapryimidal side effects (involuntary muscle contractions, tremor, slurred speech, restlessness, anxiety, distress, paranoia, and slowed thought) and increased the levels of a hormone called prolactin, which caused sexual and fertility side effects.
The mechanism of action of atypical antipsychotics has not been fully elucidated, but it is believed that all of them have some action on the dopamine receptors in the brain. Atypical antipsychotics have become the first line therapy for schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, and have generally replaced the old typical antipsychotics due to having a higher response rate, lower risk of suicide, and a better quality of life and functionality for patients. However, atypical antipsychotics still carry the risk of serious side effects, including the development of a movement disorder called tardive dyskinesia, neuroleptic malignant syndrome, and increased risks of developing stroke, blood clots, and diabetes.

I love this cartridge. All of the images are just perfect for everything you need for the perfect baby shower. The images go together smoothly and there are several "themes" to choose from.
I recently purchased this cartridge it's very cute and you can do so much with it, however it does not have a baby rattle, diaper, teddy bear, rocking horse or safety pin and it would've been so much better with these other thing.
There are lots of great images on this cartridge, but unlike other cartridges some of the images do not have a background layer like the pinwheel and the hot air balloon. However, there is a safety pin unlike the other review states.

Are you logged in as root when you get no sound? Did you tried to restart the X-server after doing the modprobe?
I remember having a similar issue on my Slackware at the beggining, and it was that my user account did not had rights to the sound card (/dev/dsp)
Yes, I'm logged in as root, and how do you restart the X-server?
ctrl + alt + bkspc will reset it.
[quote author=trickster link=board=1;threadid=5343;start=0#52026 date=1034786076]
I helped my friend troubleshoot his RedHat 8 installation last night, with that soundcard. Seems it was loading the soundcore module, but not emu10k1. This were my troubleshooting instructions that got it working. It might be helpful:
1. type "modprobe emu10k1". Then restart the X server.
2.add this to /etc/rc.d/rc.local: /sbin/modprobe emu10k1
Also, this site is pretty helpful too: http://how.to/sblive
Hope that helps.
I did the modprobe on emu10k1 and then the ctrl+alt+backspace to restart the x-server. I then went into the /etc/rc.d/rc.local and added the line /sbin/modprobe emu10k1. I then tried sound, no good, then restarted x-server and still no sound, I did a complete reboot and still no desktop sounds and the sound server keeps coming up with the "Error while initializing the sound driver: can't start sound i/o"
I have two other people attempting to install the emu10k1 from sourceforge and they're receiving the same audio.o errors as before. We're setting our machines back to normal for now to await further instructions.
if you can play an mp3 or an .wav file then the issue is not with the sound card, it would be an issue with the desktop sound set up. you said earlier that you can play DVDs and get sound which tells me that sound is working. Try this (redhat 7.3) cat /usr/share/sounds/warning.wav > /dev/dsp, make sure the volue is up - you should be able to here it. if you can then the sound is set up properly, you will want desktop sounds next, try playing around with prefernces settting in gnome and control panel in kde.

Yes, I can hear CD music just fine. Actually I was listening to music while I was reading. When I tried sending the .wav file to /dev/dsp I couldn't hear anything. I tried a few other sounds like the new log in and log out wavs which are extremely loud when played. And I still had nothing. I did have sound at one time in the past: I'd downloaded a commercial, trial verion of the OSS from some 4(something) company. That sound worked very well but it timed out. I've re-installed Red Hat since then so I have a clean system. I have it as a completely fresh install as of now with the exception that I'd modprobed emu10k1 to get it going.
We've tried all the suggestions listed above and still no good. Here's a list of what we have done so far:
Error message still receiving at logon:
Sound server informational message:
Error while initializing the sound driver:

touch /var/lock/subsys/localWe removed the sound cards and it recognized that and it recognized it when we reinstalled the sound cards.
well i foolishly forgot to post what i had in my modules.conf file, but i am sure it was not as complex as what you have. also i did not have all the other stuff you listed in rc.local
this should really be much easier than it is and this is not typical of linux and sound.
IM3 Harris, Paul
try running this :
You can su, sudo or do it as root itself. There is an option for soundcard configuration. Try running that. Tell us what happens when you try the sample wave file.
Okay, we're back but please give us a few minutes while we reload our systems. We tried a few things last night while you slept and we need to reload everything. We'll be back to the basic configuration in about 20 minutes.
Okay, I had a friend loading Red Hat for me while I stepped out for a few. I get back and have found that a new kernel has been downloaded. I was running kernel-2.4.18-14.athlon but now I have a linux-2.4.18-17.8.0. I have never installed a new kernel before so any quick steps to install this before we begin?

PAWTUCKET— It's official. The city has a five-year contract with MTG Disposal LLC to handle its sanitation and recycling services.
The news wasn't unexpected. Mayor Donald Grebien had actually signed the contract to privatize the city-run trash and recycling services on Feb. 15, so all that was left were the legalities. The City Council was given a chance to review the document at its last meeting. However, the administration had made it clear they intended to move the privatization forward, so beyond raising some concerns about implementation, councilors were left primarily to just thanking the city workers for their efforts and to requesting neighborhood meetings to educate residents about the new sanitation services.
In a letter to the council this week, members were informed that the fully executed contract between MTG Disposal, LLC, of Seekonk, Mass., and the city had been received on Wednesday. They were also told that implementation of the sanitation services, which will be preceded and accompanied by a public information campaign, is targeted for May 8. It also stated that City Council President David Moran has agreed to participate in the planning process for implementation.
Under the contract, MTG will provide refuse and recycling collection services in the city of Pawtucket through a five-year agreement that totals roughly $11 million. The city would pay the contractor $2,132,000 in year one, $2,174,640 million in year two, $2,218,133 in year three, $2,262,496 in year four and $2,307,746 in year five.
The agreement calls for the contractor to collect refuse at least once a week and do automated recycling collection every other week. The contractor will also be providing recycling totes at each location. Additionally, MTG has agreed to maintain public liability and property damage insurance that protects both itself as the contractor and the city and its officers, agents and employees from any and all claims, demands, actions and suits for damage to to property or personal injury, including death, arising from the contractor's work under the agreement.
The agreement states that the contract shall be administrated by the Director of Public Works, and at his sole discretion, a designee of his choosing.
Moran told The Times that the council had raised some concerns and questions about the privatization, but didn't get the sense that there were any avenues to stop it. He said he didn't think the council would be asking for any kind of injunction to be filed against the contract, instead leaving any such action to the union. "I just don't see anything changing," he said.
Moran said that since the administration obviously wants the private sanitation services in place, he volunteered to be the council's representative for the implementation process. "I want to be there to get my two cents in," he added. "The most important thing, if this is going forward, is to make the transition as smooth as possible for the residents."
Moran added that there is a meeting scheduled for Friday with DPW Director Lance Hill and all of the other involved parties at the DPW facility to discuss the way the trash and recycling services will be handled under the vendor contract and how to best educate the public about the program.
While the Grebien administration has pledged that there will be no layoffs of DPW workers under the privatization, and says that MTG has also offered job opportunities, the union representing the city's sanitation employees is still exploring possible legal action to block the vendor taking over sanitation services.
Union members have continued to express their anger and displeasure at the administration and its privatization efforts, both at meetings and through on-line postings. The union has sought to convince residents that the costs of trash and recycling services will be higher in the long run under privatization than it would be under the city's control, and that the level of service would be better with city workers.
Augie Venice, president of Local 1012, told the Times that he had a meeting scheduled with the City Council's Ordinance Committee late Tuesday to discuss various ordinances regarding transfer stations, refuse collection and general provisions of the workers' existing contract. Venice said there are several sections of various ordinances pertaining to sanitation services and/or recycling that he thinks are being violated by the city's hiring of a private vendor the way the language is written.
Additionally, Venice noted there is language in the current bargaining agreement stating that "no person outside of the bargaining unit shall perform bargaining unit work." "We consider that MTG is "people" and they are 'performing bargaining unit work,'" stated Venice.
Venice noted that now that the contract has been signed, the union has 10 days to file a grievance. He added that "a lawsuit is definitely an option" as the union looks to protect its workers.

Quad Cities Generating Station began its planned Unit 1 refueling and maintenance outage shortly after midnight today, according to the company.
CORDOVA, Ill. (April 27, 2009) - Quad Cities Generating Station began its planned Unit 1 refueling and maintenance outage shortly after midnight today, according to the company.
"Ensuring the safe completion of work performed during the outage is our first priority," said Quad Cities Station Site Vice President Tim Tulon. "Our employees have been preparing for this outage for more than a year, and we are ready to execute our plan safely and efficiently."
The outage, which is performed approximately every two years, allows workers to perform more than 10,000 planned inspection and maintenance activities on a variety of plant components and systems that will ensure the unit's continued safe, reliable production of low-carbon electricity. In addition, Quad Cities' fuel management experts will replace about one-third of the reactor's fuel.
Many of the activities taking place during the maintenance outage cannot be performed while the unit is operating.
To support this effort, the station will use the talents and expertise of approximately 1,800 additional workers, which benefits the local economy by providing temporary employment opportunities for local trade professionals and others who travel to Quad Cities from outside the area.
Quad Cities Unit 2 will continue to supply electricity to the region.
Quad Cities Generating Station is located in Rock Island County, five miles north of Cordova, IL. With both units at full power, the station can produce more than 1700 net megawatts of electricity, which is enough electricity to power more than 1.5 million homes.
Exelon Corporation is one of the nation's largest electric utilities. The company has one of the industry's largest portfolios of electricity generation capacity, with a nationwide reach and strong positions in the Midwest and Mid-Atlantic. Exelon distributes electricity to approximately 5.4 million customers in northern Illinois and southeastern Pennsylvania and natural gas to approximately 485,000 customers in the Philadelphia area. Exelon is headquartered in Chicago and trades on the NYSE under the ticker EXC.

The WTAMU Alumni Association welcomes all former WT students as members of the Alumni Association. This means our network, and the reach we have as an Alumni Association and University, will increase from approximately 2,500 to more than 35,000.
Contributing members will continue to receive the benefits associated with making a gift to support the Association's activities. In addition, we are working to increase these privileges to include those outside our local area. We will add benefits, programs, discounts and incentives for members at all levels as we secure them. One example of a new benefit, for those contributing, is the ability to designate up to 50 percent of your gift to the area of your interest at the University. You will receive the benefits of Alumni Association membership at the level corresponding to your full gift. In addition, your gift is no longer considered a membership fee and is therefore entirely tax deductible as allowed by law.
Nearly 500 WT Alumni responded to an online survey which were mailed and available online. 67 percent of respondents indicated that the move to an inclusive, no-membership-fee-required organization will increase their interest in reconnecting with WT. 65 percent of survey responses show an interest in an online alumni store. 50 percent want discounts at national or local businesses. 44 people indicated their willingness to serve in a leadership capacity to establish WT activity in their hometown. These responses are from Colorado, New York, Texas and beyond!
As we compile additional information from the survey we hope to keep you informed with the Alumni Newsletter, something 80 percent of our respondents would like. If you have a success to share, or perhaps a great WT memory that needs to be told, we invite you to Share your Pride in WT.
