Students personal stories has gone digital -- www.personalstories.org. So, please pass the word on far and wide and let's all work together to get those 1,600 stories by mid-November. Faculty, staff, and students can all submit. Those who submitted previously via email to Amanda and posting in the last story do not need to re-submit.

Also, check out the N&O article in today's paper to learn more about the project.

Questions? Let's get those stories rolling in.

"Oftentimes lawmakers use the excuse for tuition increases that "they won't really affect students" particularly since "parents pay their tuition anyway". And for budget cuts they claim the "they won't have any real affect on students" and they will instead simply "cut the fat". Well, I am off on a mission to prove that all of the above excuses are completely untrue. "
