i . Thanks for still more positive comments about our column for
z for staff news. Someone has suggested another column idea for
3 highlighting staff members who have done things or been places
g .y that the rest of us haven't done. So, if you know anyone on the
f " staff (faculty or staff) who has journeyed off the beaten path,
§ please submit their name to me c/o the Chemistry/Physics Library
i or the Director‘s Office. We'll send out our ace reporter and p
g . get the scoop. If you nominate someone, a hint as to what _
i motivated you would be a big help.
é Something different this issue: a quiz! No, not the
X contents of the past Green Beans (thank goodness...), but rather
Q a chance to sharpen your acronym deciphering skills. Read on!

. LSO ANNOUNCEMENTS
I would like to thank everyone who contributed their time,
money or food for the LSO Thanksgiving Basket. It was greatly
_ appreciated by the receiving family and made their holiday a
little bit better.
Anyone interested in starting their political career by
running for an LSO officer position can submit their names for
nomination. Otherwise, I'll be canvassing for volunteers, and
you never know who I'll volunteer — it could be you. (Dan
Barkley, LSO President) _

How many times have you read an article and been frustrated by Q
the increasing use of those pesky acronyms? In an effort to keep §
