A asociate Medical Director of the Blood Bank and Transportation Service for the University Hospitals Robertson Davenport said they have been "fortunate" when it comes to blood donations because, "the Red Cross has been able to meet our needs," he said. But if the flu problem persists, the situation could grow into greater prob- lems for the hospitals, Davenport said. hough University Health Services continue to treat patients with th flu, VHS officials said the prevalent epi- demic has not caused a panic for blood donations at the facility. "This does not affect us," said Robert Winfield, interim director at University Heath Service UHS. mainly because the center does not process or deal with blood dona- tions verry much, he added. The usual availibility of blood types within the American Red Cross includes a three-day 0-negative and B- negative supply. Currently, due to the flu and the decrease in donor turnout, the Red Cross has found itself with one-day supplies of Type-O blood. Although there is no need for a mass panic, Mangus said, "people with Type- 0 blood should come in and give as much as they can because that is the universal blood type." If numbers of donors continue to decrease, the Red Cross will "not have trouble importing some blood from other regions," Mangus said, provided that they are ne p problems wit th University liopt healthy donors to p blood drive during Fel assist the enssuing hlo "Obviously we arc effects of the f u on Beverley Smith, Hospitals volunteer s tor at the Hospital "But we plan on be to previous donorsa recruit more donors," afflicted months, she Healthy students ar take part in te ho drive and call 936-I appointments for the ABORTION Continued from Page 1A her up for adoption.

Director of Campus Relations for Versity.com Janet Cardinell said "our overall objective is to be the premiere academic Website for col- lege students. We are here to rein- force the material, help students review for tests and help the faculty to see almost instantly if the students are grasping the material without having to wait until exams and tests." Versity.com is working with the faculty by allowing them to see the notes before or after they are posted and make changes, which the student notetaker is then responsible for cor- recting. University professors in 26 classes have approved student notetakers for Versity.com. Students like the idea of free notes but question the quality of the prod- uct. "I think it is a great idea, but the quality of notes are so bad that there is no use going through the trouble of filling out surveys and such just to get the notes off the Web," LSA sophomore Ron Keoleian said. "You can't rely on them, I mean maybe if I slept in for a Friday ,8 o'clock or something," LSA sopho- more Emily Flajole said. But Cardinell said "student note- takers must apply and go through training." ' ) 1NTERE TED IN WRITING F R THE DAILY? COME TO A MASS MEETING AT 7 P*M.
