- Donate Food to a Needy Family for Thanksgiving -

Officer Jerome Lee, Strong College’s Adopt-a-COPP, is taking donations 
of non-perishable foodstuffs (canned goods, etc.) to be given to a local 
family at Thanksgiving.  Look for the sign and donation box in the 
Junior Common Room, and leave any items you can spare there.  Thanks to 
Officer Lee for his service in this very worthy cause.

The Strong College French Society, sponsored by Strong College members 
Mark Schumacher and Meg Campbell, invites everyone to view the movie “Au

Senior Common Room (Room 163) at 7:00 p.m.  Meg is also accepting short 
stories, cartoons, drawings, etc. (en Français) for a French newsletter 
— drop them off in Room 103 by midnight, 2 December.

Sixth District Congressman Howard Coble was Dr. White’s guest at the 
President’s Tea last week, and true to his nature he gave a speech (a

to all the Strong College members who came to meet him.
