           Bradley University Plans New Communication Facility

         Submitted by:  Ed Lamoureux <ell@bradley.bradley.edu>

The Speech-Communication faculty at Bradley University (Peoria, IL)
is preparing for a building project (new or renovation).  We would
like to know about facilities configurations which support speech
activities and teaching.  For example: testing/research laboratories,
rehearsal/performance spaces, video-tape/audio visual equipment,
computer technology, etc.  We are hoping to visit locations at which
facilities (space) and equipment are integrated in "cutting edge"
fashion.  If you work in, or know of, such an environment/facility,
please respond with location and description.

             Going on Vacation? "Suspend" Your Hotline Mail

    Many faculty and students in the Northern Hemisphere will be
breaking soon for winter recess.  If you will be away from your e-mail
box, you may wish to temporarily suspend delivery of e-mail from
Comserve hotlines.  Members of Comserve's parent organization, the non
profit Communication Institute for Online Scholarship, can accomplish
this easily by sending Comserve the following command:

                            Suspend hotlines

    When you wish to turn your subscriptions back on, simply send this
command:

                            Resume hotlines

    Please keep in mind that these commands must be sent from the same
address (Internet or Bitnet) that was used to create your subscriptions.

    Please do not attempt to send these commands by "replying" to this
message.  Leave your mail reading environment and address your message
explicitly.  Comserve's addresses are listed at the beginning of this
file.
