<p class=MsoNormal>Dear students past and present<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Those of you in WA and members of the WA e-list WAIN will
now about this event already.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We are very pleased to
have been among the first &nbsp;teaching, and now research, entities at WAIT/Curtin
almost since its inception.&nbsp; The School itself started under John Dean,
now in Ireland and with whom we still keep in touch, &nbsp;circa 1968-9, and
the first graduates came through in 1971.&nbsp; So we have a proud history.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>We would be very pleased if you would like to join other
alumni to celebrate this occasion and an invitation is attached. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>The Information Studies Alumni Committee works hard to build
funds for a student scholarship and we have invited a significant donor to this
fund to join us on the night so that we can again thank her.&nbsp;&nbsp; One of
the Alumni Committee&#8217;s primary fundraising events is the Information Studies
Quiz Night, but this year we have replaced it with a dinner.&nbsp; The cost of
the dinner, as the invitation explains, includes&nbsp; an varied buffet meal, including
dessert, tea, coffee and chocs, drinks on arrival, and helps us to meet the
cost of the restaurant staff and some incidentals for the night.&nbsp; We hope
to break even and if there are any leftover funds, they will go straight into
the scholarship fund.&nbsp; If you wish to make a donation to the fund you can
do so on the night &#8211; or at any time.&nbsp; Just let me know.&nbsp; The fund
is reaching the stage where the Alumni Committee is now considering award
criteria preparatory to a first award, possibly in 2012.&nbsp; But the fund can
never have too much in it as the award will be from the interest gained from
the fund&#8217;s principal.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>While we are not having the Quiz Night, our new quiz
question setter Paul Genoni (who replaced Maggie Exon when she retired) has
promised us a fun and interesting interlude every now and then.&nbsp; And there
will be door prizes to die for (not) <span style='font-family:Wingdings'>J</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>We look forward to catching up with as many of you as can
make it, although because of seating restrictions, there is a limit on
numbers.&nbsp; So please be quick with your rsvp.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>
