Mendele Personal Notices and Announcements Date: June 9, 2019 To minimize wear and tear on the untershames, three requests:
1. Send time-sensitive notices well in advance. 2. Send material as plain text to victor.bers at yale.edu as plain text (no HTML, other coding, or attachments) and write MENDELE PERSONALS in the subject line. 3. Correspond directly with the person who or organization which has posted the notice, *not* with your ever-beleaguered untershames. ________________________________________________________________________ From: Mark H.
