The Ad Hoc Committee on Academics currently is examining issues of how to increase academic standards at UAM. The committee will present concrete proposals by the end of the semester to the Assembly and eventually the administration. It seeks proposals and recommendations from faculty, staff and students about how to raise academic standards at UAM.

If you need a good book to read, check out the Book Exchange. The service, provided by the Taylor Library and located near the current newspapers, includes a variety of leisure reading materials. Books from the book exchange need not be checked out. Just take a book you would like to read and bring it back when you are finished or bring a replacement if you can. It's as easy as that!

Planning a vacation in the Natural State? Pick up the following brochures in the Taylor Library at the free publication table: Adventure Guide 2007, Arkansas State Highway Map, Calendar of Events 2007, State Parks Guide 2007 and Tour Guide 2007.
