The Shocker:
What a terrific job you did on the article (“Spirit People,” spring 2002) about the Asmat collecting trip! It was an exciting description of an anthropological expedition.

WSU Alumni Association:

I have just finished reading the excellent The Shocker (spring 2002 issue) from cover to cover, especially the “Spirit People” article.

I was a student in the 1930s and married before graduation in 1937.  I attended four years, but due to a change in majors from sociology to business administration, I failed to graduate. I treasure my years there and enjoy the news in The Shocker.

Renewed Contact

Greetings:

I am a 1992 and 1994 graduate of WSU’s College of Engineering, in industrial and manufacturing engineering. I have met an excellent group of colleagues, including Randall M. Chambers (distinguished professor emeritus), Abu S.M. Masud (chair, industrial and manufacturing engineering), Don E. Malzahn (undergraduate coordinator, industrial and manufacturing engineering) and many more.

I am very keen about keeping in contact with them. Since I spent precious time studying at WSU, I really want to give back to the university, even a little. I’d like to renew my membership in the WSU Alumni Association. This is the least I can do so as to keep the relationship going. I would appreciate it if you could send me recent news about the school. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Thanks and Regards,
