The list is called CAN-ER (Campus Activists' Network, Educational Rights); so far there are about 150 subscribers. UCP's Center for Campus Organizing is lending this email list to Student Aid Action, US Pirg, and other groups to organize national action. The list will provide information on both the March 21-5 week of student lobbying to save student aid and the March 29 National Day of Campus Action Against the Contract With America. The list is "screened" to avoid excess email volume by Sarah Lund of Student Action Coalition at Kent State. You are invited to subscribe to the email list; you may unsubscribe at any time. 1. TO SUBSCRIBE, send email to: canet@pencil.cs.missouri.edu with a subject of "canet" whose body just says: sub can-er Firstname Lastname 2. TO SEND A MESSAGE to the list, you must be subscribed. E-mail it to: can-er@pencil.cs.missouri.edu 3. TO UNSUBSCRIBE, send email to: canet@pencil.cs.missouri.edu with a subject of "canet" whose body ONLY says: unsub can-er 4.
