New TV in Student Lounge. Thanks to the great generosity of Phil and Nancy Hablutzel, we installed a new television in the Student Lounge last week. The combination of a recent-model television and a substantially more powerful antenna has caused a noticeable improvement in reception on most channels. (We investigated the possibility of installing cable in the Student Lounge, but discovered that, at the current time in this part of downtown Chicago, it would cost upwards of $40,000 to do so.) Joke of the Week. A bear walks into a bar and says to the bartender, "I want a gin ........ and tonic." The bartender replies, "what's with the big pause?" (Thanks to Prof. Baker for this week's joke.) News & Annoucements From Prior Weeks -- 1999-2000 Archives
