Dearest Readers,

 

The ton are abuzz with preparations for the new semester. Rumor has it that course materials are not always correctly listed on the bookstore site, https://www.bkstr.com/westfieldstore/shop/textbooks-and-course-materials, with information missing or misleading. Spare your students unnecessary expenses and confusion by sending them the correct information directly.

 

Your truly,

Mod Hall

I just heard that Mod Hall recently was flooded, and everyone had to move out.

 

Yours truly,
