    PLEASE REPOST and PASS ON to STUDENTS 3/17/94

    To students, faculty and staff angry about proposed higher ed cuts:

    To serve the growing campus movement to protest the attacks on higher education, and specifically the plans to slash financial aid, we have set up an email list to further communication by groups working to stop this dangerous piece of the proposed "Contract With America."

    The list is called CAN-ER (Campus Activists' Network, Educational Rights); so far there are about 500 subscribers. UCP's Center for Campus Organizing is lending this email list to Student Aid Action, US Pirg, USSA, and other groups to organize national action, including participation by student aid advocates in the March 29 National Day of Campus Action Against the Contract With America.

    To prevent excess email volume, this list is "screened" by Sarah Lund of Student Action Coalition at Kent State. You are invited to subscribe to the email list; you may unsubscribe at any time.

    1. TO SUBSCRIBE, send email to: canet@pencil.cs.missouri.edu with a subject of "canet" whose body just says: sub can-er Firstname Lastname

    CAN-ER is now set up to send you one big message per day.

    2. TO SEND A MESSAGE to the list, you must be subscribed. E-mail it to: can-er@pencil.cs.missouri.edu

    3. TO UNSUBSCRIBE, send email to: canet@pencil.cs.missouri.edu with a subject of "canet" whose body ONLY says: unsub can-er

    4. TO RECEIVE LOTS OF LITTLE MESSAGES, rather than a "digest" version of CAN-ER (1 big message per day), send e-mail to: canet@pencil.cs.missouri.edu with subject "canet" and body: set can-er mail ack

    To undo this use "digest" in place of "ack".

    5. For a list of Campus Activists' Network discussions, send email to: canet-info@pencil.cs.missouri.edu
