The Ministerial Services office has recently been moved to the second
floor of the Hall of Administration. I want to extend an invitation to
all of you who will be attending the upcoming conference to come in and
meet everyone in the office.
Telephone--WATS lines: Since we have moved, we are no longer able to
have the Mail Processing Center WATS lines directly connected to our
office. The people in the WATS area are able to patch calls on the first
three lines of their WATS system to the campus telephone system; how­
ever, this results in lower volume and quality of transmission. Depend­
ing on the degree of problems with this approach, it may have to be
dropped altogether.
Another alternative available to you if you need to contact us is to use
the inbound WATS line that is answered by the college switchboard.
The number for this line is (800) 423-4464. If you use this number, the
switchboard operator will take down your name, telephone number, and who
you want to contact, and notify our office to call you. If you use this
system, we wi,
11 do our utmost to return your call as soon as possible.
Ministerial Conference Update: In the November 17th memo concerning the
conference it was me'ntioned that each person would receive $25 for meals
at restaurants. We have been given the okay to increase the meal allot­
ment to $50 per person. As explained in the earlier memo, meals will
also be prepared at the Student Center for all who attend.
For the ladies, the Women's Alliance has asked us to announce that they
"ire planning a "Special Tea" to renew old acquaintances and form new
friendships. They are hoping you will set aside some time between 2 and
5 ?.M. on Wednesday, January 17th for this event. A written invitation
will be included in your registration packet.
The students are planning a dinner-dance for one of the evenings during
the conference. The dress will be semi-formal. We also plan to have
hors d'oeuvres each evening to provide a congenial atmosphere for
socializing.
In order to help everyone to plan what type of clothing to bring we
want to remind you that winter is the rainy season in Southern California.
You may want to bring moderately warm clothing because the temperature
has been getting down to the 30s and 40s at night with the day time highs
in the 50s and 60s.
Notice: If anyone has any questions concerning a Mrs. Okey Gray, please
contact Ministerial Services or Mr. Dean Blackwell.
