October 2002

Message from the Executive Editor

With the publication of the October issue, we regret to announce that University Relations will cease production of the tabloid version of the Mason Gazette. This decision is driven by the budget uncertainties we currently face, which dictate prudent financial planning. The Gazette will resume publication if the cuts are less severe than anticipated.

In the meantime, we will try to ensure that effective internal campus communication is maintained through the online Daily Gazette. We will be exploring ways to develop the Daily in order to capture some of the strengths and popular features of the Mason Gazette.

Vice President for University Relations
