Some of the books have requirements, like specific majors, which are required in order to post to them.

Hello everyone, I hope I didn't forget anyone--if you notice someone's email I might have missed please forward this message. We will have a PTK Induction letter-stuffing party on Sunday. We have approximately 4700 envelopes to stuff and if we want the bulk mailing cost break we'll have to separate the zip codes by hand--so we're going to need lots of help. I'm sorry that this day happens to fall on Easter, but the letters must be sent out as soon as possible. The envelopes and the address labels will be here (at Cascade) tonight and we have half of the letters to stuff. The other half is still at the Sylvania print Center (unless someone picked them up). We can meet at my house, or a central location somewhere if someone has another idea. The more the merrier so bring friends if you can talk them into it. Bryan Ruzicka
