To Invite a Foreign Scholar or Student At any one time, over two hundred scholars from universities in other countries are temporarily resident at the University of Pennsylvania for teaching or research. Many of these scholars are here without their families or are relatively cut off from the mainstream of university life. One of the nicest gestures that can be paid to these visitors is to invite them into our homes on the occasion of the uniquely American holiday of Thanksgiving. If you are able to do so, please make a special point to invite foreign scholars visiting your department to share Thanksgiving dinner with you, or call Ambrose Davis, in the Office of International Programs (Ext. 4661), if you are willing to host a foreign scholar and would like to be put in touch with someone suitable. What holds true of foreign scholars holds true also of foreign students. For information on hosting foreign students, please call the international Hospitality Program (382-5125). -Humphrey Tonkin, Coordinator, International Programs

Treating safety as on ongoing concern, the Council Committee on Safety and Security combines a two-year progress report with a message on current concerns, with some reminders of University services available to faculty, staff and students who live on campus or nearby.
