Preparing for 2002 at USU
3/10/99Ever since 1999 hit, people can't stop talking about the year 2000. The Y2K dilemma is a concern that is involved in everything from banks to elevators. Utah State University is no exception. Computer Services has begun testing individual systems within the university to see if they are Y2K compatible.

How sourdough starter got its start
3/10/99 One can imagine a never-fail, crowd-pleasing recipe thousands of years old would be sought after by a throng of cooks trying to get their hands on it. Interestingly enough this recipe is probably a part of your repertoire, and has never been thought of as a relic. / By Tara Bench

Recycling: Talking trash in Cache
3/24/99 I recently went to New York City for Spring Break, and noticed the unique system of recycling there. On a street corner, I threw my half-empty pop bottle in the wire trash cans I saw on most corners of the city. Only a few seconds later, a man with his own bag of trash took it out of the can, dumped the remaining flat Diet Pepsi, and put it in his own sack. Why? That bottle is probably worth money at the nearest recycling center. Here in Cache Valley, we are not so "fortunate" to have our own free curbside pick up. However, there are a variety of ways to help with the recycling cause, and many reasons why we should.
