SUBJECT:

New Staff Women Reception

I am pleased to announce that the First Annual New Staff Women Reception
will be held on Thursday, December 18, 1997, in the Price Center Ballroom.
The Reception provides an excellent opportunity to welcome new staff women
to the UCSD community. More than 360 employees who were hired between
November 1, 1996, and October 31, 1997, have been invited to this event.

The Reception will begin at 2:30 p.m. and will include comments from UCSD
Administrators in a festive environment. The Reception is sponsored by the
Chancellor's Office and the Chancellor's Advisory Committee on the Status
of Women of the University of California, San Diego.

All supervisors should encourage their employees who have been formally
invited to attend the Reception. If possible, supervisors should attend the
event with their employees.

We look forward to seeing you at the Reception.

Robert C. Dynes Chancellor
