 I'm sending this request out on a couple of Lists, so my apologies to those of
 you who will receive duplicates.

 The University of Louisville, with a student population of approximately
 23,000 students, is beginning the search for a replacement Student Information
 System, including admissions, student records, student receivables, and
 potentially financial aid.

 If your school is comparable in size (or larger) and using vendor-supplied SIS
 software, I'd like to know:
   -- who's your vendor?
   -- are the systems integrated?
   -- would you make the same vendor decision today?
   -- how long have you been using this software?

 Thanks in advance for your time and effort to respond. You may respond
 directly to me at the e-mail addresses listed below.

My addresses are:

I'm corresponding privately with Trevor to see what the problem is.  However,
this is a good time to plug the availability of CUMREC-L logs.  The logs for
the end of September ARE available, as are all logs since the creation of
CUMREC-L.  North Dakota State University has been kind enough to provide disk
space for all of these logs at no cost to CUMREC.  THANK YOU, NDSU!!

These logs are available as text files named CUMREC-L LOGyymm, so to order
September, 1992 logs, you can send the following command to LISTSERV@NDSUVM1
(**NOT CUMREC-L**):

GET CUMREC-L LOG9209

The logs are also searchable by words within messages.  For detailed
instructions on how to do that, send for the document LISTDB MEMO by sending
the following command to LISTSERV@NDSUVM1:

GET LISTDB MEMO

There is also a listserv list dedicated to the LDBASE program (the archive
search engine documented in LISTDB MEMO) called LDBASE-L@UKANVM.

Please contact me at one of the above addresses if you have specific problems
or questions about any of this.  Also, if all else fails my phone number is
(605) 688-4678.  However, contacting me through the list as Trevor did will
work as a last resort, also.  Just be sure you've tried some of the other
options first.

This is also a good time to mention that signoff requests need to go to
LISTSERV@NDSUVM1, **NOT CUMREC-L**.  We've had a couple of those in the last
week or two.  If you're having problems signing off, contact me.

Now, back to our regularly scheduled CUMREC-L.

I hope I haven't missed too much of this discussion, but you might try looking
into _Griffin and Sabine_ and _Sabine's Notebook_ both by Nick Bantock.  They
are both attractive books to look at as well, although perhaps a bit slick.

   Unfortunately, I did not get to see the Star Trek episode in question, 
but I will say yes and no to the idea that Twain would throw up at becoming 
a national icon.  Later in his life he said that he would pursue a goal of 
becoming the most conspicuous man on Earth.  He more or less achieved that, 
and while he was a deeply pessimistic and troubled person, he took great 
pains to keep that side of his nature relatively hidden to his public.
   What he surely would have objected to is the sugar-coated treatment given 
to many of his works by the motion picture industry.  Movie treatments of 
Twain get worse and worse as time goes on.  That fact was brought home to us 
a few weeks ago when we watched the Connecticut Yankee film made in the 
early 30's with Will Rogers.  It was somewhat liberal with the book - 
updating it to the 1930's, but it was perfectly true to the spirit of the 
book. 
   What I wouldn't give to see an accurate treatment of the Mysterious 
Stranger.

Comments: Gated by NETNEWS@AUVM.AMERICAN.EDU

I am now the proud owner of a new 24' Rainbow sloop which wants a name.  Here
is your chance for (very) brief fame & to help out a fellow subscriber:  name
this boat!  (send either to the list or private email, as you like)

What is the literary tie-in you ask?  Well the first name that came to mind
was "Gravity's"--and you can take it from there :-)  Some principles to keep
in mind:  euphony, rhythm, ability to suggest a logo for the hull, unusual.
I favor (mildly) either 1 or 3 syllable names.  Phrases need to suggest easy
abrdigements, eg, "Midsummer's Eve" would easily reduce to "Eve" or "Evie"
in conversation.  Alliteration is always useful.  A literary tie-in, as
suggested above, is nice (but not mandatory).  Bird names are possible but
usually overdone (although I kinda like Hopkins' "Windhover"); fish names are
even more mundane.

Other characteristics of the boat:  day sailor, fin keel w/ 1000+ lbs of
ballast (ie, a stable or "stiff" boat), sleek lines, moderately low freeboard,
it will be used for racing, by the way, so perhaps something denoting speed.
(speed is relative, of course:  theoretical top for this hull would be about
6 knots.)

Thanx in advance!

The play in question is *The Browning version* by Terence Rattigan.  The quote c

been asked to give his retirement speech before the sports teacher at end of
term on the grounds that since the sports teacher is so popular the other

Subject:      Help again!! Lovers and writers

First of all I want to thank everyone for your many helpful replies.

Reading all the lettrs was fasinating and helpful. However, I have

made a slight error in describing my assignment. I have to take a

writer who has written about a lover who has not written. For a

classic example take Beudalaire who wrote about many women. Those

women never had a voice, they were objectified by Beudalaire in his

poetry. However, the lover does not necassarily have to be objectified.

The suggestions on Joseph Conrad were interesting, however did Conrad

ever write about Jane Anderson? So now you see my field is more

limited. I would like to do something with a post-modern writer, Nabokov

for instance. Could anyone help me find a post-modern writer who writers

about a lover who has not written. I would greatly appreciate your

help. By the way, this is for a creative-wrtiting seminar in cross-

genre writing (poetry-prose, etc). This is an assignment which is

supposed to be well researched. I am in my third year of writing.

Thanks for the help, I look forward to your replies.

Subject:      Re: Help again!! Lovers and writers

Bob, I suppose you mean that the "lover who has not written" has to be
non-fictional.  Too bad, 'cause I'd suggest almost anything by Kathy Acker, who
explodes the boundary between the fictional and non-fictional anyway, especially
in a work like *Kathy goes to Haiti*, a work which would allow you to talk
about the interesting connection between a non-articulate writer and a people
whose political struggles are rarely permitted a hearing in this lovely
'new world ordure' we're all swimming in.  Since you've been asked to look
at a postmodern writer, isn't almost incumbent on you to get in the face of
all these silly categories anyway?  I mean, are you going to say that we have
to know that the writer has had intercourse with the lover?  Does sexual
consummation matter much as a literal act in an era when the very idea of
consummation seems to have been put under erasure?  To the extent that
Norman Mailer is a postmodern writer (a debatable point I guess), you could
look at his fictionalized affair with Marilyn Monroe, and it seems to me
that this would allow you a fascinating opportunity to look at a lover who
"did not write" yet whose *work* speaks volumes, as does her mere presence.

At any rate, it just seems wrong to me, given the fact that you've been asked
to work with a postmodernist, to get too hung up on the *literalness* of the
love relationship.  Why not play with the categories, like any good postmodernis
   t
surely would?

p.s. I'm a bit disappointed that no one expressed an interest in my idea on
writing from the perspective of Yeats's wife, a woman who gets all sort of
tacit praise in the biographical literature yet who remains strangely
faceless despite that fact.  Oh well, maybe this is something I should try
to write on myself . . . I imagine that it *could* be quite a story . . .
