Q. When I try to check the status of my account, “your patron privileges have expired in large red letters greet me.

The reason I assume this has happened is that I had the status of my account changed for me from Alumnus to Canadian Academy of Independent Scholars. Apparenlty my payment for my next year’s dues were late (I do not know whether or not they got them; I got an email from them telling me they were late after I’d already sent the cheque)

To make a long story short, can you switch my status back to alumnus.

A. Hi,

take care

Q.
about 9:50 p.m., 15 Dec

Just left computer area on 2nd flr, SE corner. Several guys talking and eating pizzas — big pizza boxes laying around computer.

PLEASE PATROL THIS AREA BETTER. Often loud talkers and food eating.
Thanks

A. Thanks for bringing this to our attention. Alas unfortunately some students take the food policy too liberally. For budgetary reasons there is no regular patrol of the area but if this occurs again, feel free to talk to a staff member on the 3rd floor and we’ll follow up.
