STUDENTS: Student Directo-ries (with the orange cover)have been made available forall students. They are in a boxdownstairs near the studentmailboxes. You can also get adirectory from Ms. Powell atthe front desk.
Plans are to start hav-ing The Weekly sentby e-mail to all stu-dents within the nextfew weeks. As this oc-curs, printing of TheWeekly will be phasedout.
The reasons for thisare many. Obviously,this will cut down onpaper waste. Therewill still be a few"hard" copies of TheWeekly posted at vari-ous locations aroundthe school. But, withan electronic version,students can simplystore their copies ontheir computers, orrun them out, if neces-sary.
The Weekly will lookmore attractive, be-cause it will retain itscolor features on e-mail. Photos will lookbetter and be crisp.
The Weekly will beavailable in a moretimely fashion, and

check their NCCU Lawe-mail accounts, andhow to forward e-mails sent to theirNCCU Law account toanother account, if de-sired.
