| Gasoline Crunch |
Dear Students:
It appears that the gasoline crises has run-its-course and that gasoline is again flowing in the Atlanta area pipeline. Based upon this, the previously distributed guideline (September 29, 2008) related to class/clinical absences due to inability to obtain gasoline is being rescinded effective October 10, 2008.
Thank you for your cooperation during this time.
