I personally invite all Wall members to
enjoy the up coming holiday activities on the
Wesleyan campus and in your homes.
Please show your support for Wesleyan and
WALL by attending the holiday
luncheon on December 11th. The registration
form is on page 4 of the newsletter and the deadline for
payment is this Friday, December 4th
The friendships we made through the classes we attended
will be reminders of who we will see and greet when we re-
turn in January.

Wall President
Members get
personal attention
as they learn basic

applications for
their computers
WALL Members try
on Chinese robes as
part of this semesters'
Chinese Culture
Course. They look
pretty good, don’t
they?
Macon designer
Terry Holland
reminds you to
use local flora in
your holiday
decorations.
