Print Services in Leighton 128 has recently deployed web-to-print software with convenient online ordering and tracking.

Five downtown merchants accept Schillers as payment: Bittersweet Eatery, Chapati, Just Food Co-op, Pan Pan, and Sisters Ugly. Schillers cannot be used for the purchase of alcohol and tobacco products in town. Fund your Schillers account in-person at the Bookstore, the Business Office, or online.

The digital signage program that was announced last spring is now up and running. A campus-wide rollout will be gradual as we learn more about the potential of the software and receive comments from the community. Right now the system is broadcasting digital posters publicizing events and services put on by departments and student groups, the College events calendar for the day, and current weather information for the week.

Monitors have been installed in Sayles Great Space, East Dining Hall, and the Library. Soon to come will be monitors in Burton Dining Hall, Admissions, Student Activities Office, and the Weitz Center.

Visit the Web site for more information about the digital signage program, and if you have digital posters to submit for broadcast, click on “Publishing on the Signs” and look for the link “Poster Submission Form.”

Last year Tuesdays were known as “Trayless Tuesdays” at East Dining Hall. Organized by two of Carleton’s Sustainability Assistants and supported by the CSA Senate, the program encouraged  students to eat their Tuesday meals without using trays. Some students resisted the program, but enough participated that Senate passed a resolution supporting trayless dining seven days a week at LDC for the current academic year.

“Trayless Everyday”  began when Early Arrival students came to campus on August 14^th and is now in its 8^th week.  Trays are always available for students who want them, but most students seem to be acclimating well to the change. The goal of this program is to reduce food waste by as much as 20% over time.

Is your Web directory photo up to date? Does it have the standard background, the same background our Carleton students have? Campus Services invites faculty and staff for a free photo re-take. We'll reprint your OneCard and your new photo will appear in the Web directory the following Sunday. The Campus Services Office is located in Sayles-Hill 5. We're open 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday.

Barring an unforeseen delay, copies of Cold: The Record of an Antarctic Sledge Journey by Laurence McKinley Gould are now available in the Bookstore. This long out-of-print book is a must-have for anyone who loves Carleton. This is a riveting account of an adventurous undertaking by Laurence McKinley Gould, the extraordinary leader and scholar who served as Carleton's president from 1945 to 1962, a seminal time in the College’s history. Dr. Gould was the Second in Command on the Byrd Antarctic Expedition of 1928 to 30. The book is available in paperback at $16.95 exclusively through the Carleton Bookstore. See our trade book Web site for more information.

Tucked into the Commons at the Weitz Center for Creativity is the Weitz Café.  Open Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., the Weitz Café has prepared sandwiches and salads, soup, pastries and other grab-and-go items as well as bottled beverages and complete coffee and tea service. Whether you’re teaching there or just meeting  friends, it’s a great new food venue at Carleton. You can use dining dollars, meal equivalency, cash or Schillers for payment
