You might be surprised by the answer. One copy on the photocopier costs 1.64 cents, while one copy from the Print Shop costs .75 cents. If we cut our photocopy usage in half and send 5 million copies to the Print Shop, the College would save $45,000 a year. Cost per copy in cents 30 years ago But what about the time it takes to send items to the Print Shop for duplicating? Things have changed, according to Senior Duplicating Operator Glenn Ellingson. “If someone has a rush job we can usually slip it in and have it done in an hour,” Ellingson says. “If they can wait, we can have it back to them in a day or two.” 0.00 Print Shop Photocopier Laura McDonald of the Fossils slips one by the opposing team's goalie in the final floor hockey game of the season.

Philosophy instructor Leonard Angel researched and assessed literature on multiculturalism in logic, concluding that “the evidence for cultural relativism in logic was too fragmentary and weak to warrant any substantial inclusion of a logical relativism theme in critical thinking classes.” He also worked on a variety of problems in developing formats for multifactorial reasoning, and compiled case examples for use in analysing multifactorial reasoning which draw on criminology, nursing, business, physical and biological sciences environments. Leonard presented a “user friendly approach to critical thinking” using his multifactorial formats to the College on March 11 and to the English Department on April 30. His findings will also be integrated with ongoing work in his Critical Thinking classes. English instructor Gail Fraser spent her ed leave researching and writing a chapter for a book on Virginia Woolf, entitled Editing Virginia Woolf. Her activities involved assembling, reading and critiquing all the editions of Woolf's fiction published since her copyright expired, and informing herself about the most up-to-date pyrig Pp g P editorial principles. Fraser arrived at some conclusions which will be of value to her colleagues who teach Woolf now and in the future, and also to the College Library, the main one being that the 1, February 1, and April 1.
