Thank You!
Now that school is about over I will have more time to work on it... feel free to give me stuff to put up anytime. I really appreciate your help with this. It is a lot of work for one person, and it makes a huge difference just having someone give me info to put up there. If you get a minute, would you mind checking the member history for me? I'm pretty sure there are a few who are officially off the dept now but would like to know for sure before I change their status. Thanks again, Ariel
