<p class="x_MsoNormal">Hi all,</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">Since QuestionPoint/AskWA was not on the LLC agenda, I’m sending this out on the listserv. If your college is not participating, would you let me know? We are stretched so thin that we are having trouble keeping up with our shifts.
We are beginning to think that so few of our students use it that it might not be worth our efforts to cover the shifts.</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">You can respond to me off the list.</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">Thanks,</p>
