Catt Associates calendar highlights Iowa State women
The Catt Associates, a student organization affiliated with Iowa State
University's Catt Center for Women and Politics, will unveil a calendar
featuring a dozen Iowa State women on Sunday, Jan. 21, at 2 p.m. in the
Memorial Union's Oak Room.

a 2007 calendar. The poster will also include photographs of six students
and six faculty/staff members who have achieved excellence in athletics,

Enrichment Mini Grant made available by the Office of the Provost. The photographer
is Dave Gieseke, College of Liberal Arts and Sciences director of communications.
Faculty and staff selected included Susan Carlson, interim provost; Diane
Debinski, associate professor of ecology, evolution and organismal biology;
Tahira Hira, executive assistant to the president; Pat Miller, director
of lectures; Penny Rice, women's center coordinator; and Calli Sanders,
senior associate athletic director.

and mass communication major; Julie Hunt, junior sociology major; Lyndsey
