The deadline for submission of a nomination for the 2003 Martin Luther King, Jr. Community Involvement Awards has been extended to Monday, December 16. See Almanac November 12 for details.

There will be no classes on January 20 in honor of Penn's commemoration of Martin Luther King Day, and the University will be closed since the day is a recognized holiday. See January AT PENN which will be published in next week's issue for MLK events.

Corrections

In the Honors section of the November 19 issue, Dr. Claire Fagin was incorrectly identified as the former acting president. Her title had been former interim president of the University.

In the November 26 issue, the mail code for the Jon M. Huntsman Hall was incorrect. The correct mail code is 6340.
