Business Reply Mail

Don't you hate getting junk mail? One thing I've started doing is sending back the business reply mail envelopes empty. The company has to pay for the envelope to be mailed and they might get the picture if they start to get a bunch of empty envelopes back in the mail.

If I wanted insurance, I'd seek you out! Quit sending me stuff! Say it by sending them back some empty envelopes.

Clogged Drain

Sarah got me a cool "cheat sheet" called "STAIN REMOVAL Tips for Household Cleanup" which has some cool stuff in it. I just tried its tip for a clogged drain. It says
Pour .5 cup salt and/or .5 cup baking soda down drain, followed by boiling water, flush with hot tap water.

It worked pretty well. I guess this doesn't work if you have standing water in the sink already. After the first time I tried this, the sink was still draining kind of slowly so I did it again and the sink drains well.

HC Alumni: Annual Fund

I went to campus on Friday and both Dean Buller & Dianne Reeves told me that the contribution rate for the HC annual fund is 3%. I think they said that the average is around 15% for all colleges. Why is everybody slacking? All you have to do is send in ONE DOLLAR for you to be counted in the contribution statistics. I know that I'd like to see my school grow as it is building its legacy. A big factor in donors deciding on contribution levels is the percentage of alumni who donate. If you haven't yet contributed, DO IT NOW.

Here's what you should do:
Make a check payable to the Honors College Annual Fund.
Mail to: HC Annual Fund
