Newman and Amazon.com Help
Support Newman when buying your Textbooks On-line! |
|
|
Buying Textbooks is no fun and
they're way too expensive...
but, you can take some of the sting out of
it by using the Newman Website.
Buy at the
Amazon Textbook Store
and Newman will get a percentage of the sale (up to 10%).
The kick-back to Newman will not increase the cost to you
(though it will not make your purchase any cheaper either...
sorry)
but at least you can feel good that some of your
money is going to help Newman!
Also, checkout the Newman
Center Store or simply go to Amazon.com
by first clicking on any of the links on the Newman Web
site for any other purchases and Newman gets a
percentage of the sale.

ATTENTION STUDENTS:
Find Your Picture and get Free Food!! |
 |
That's right!
If you find that Fr Doug has shamelessly used your
photo anywhere on the Newman Website, then it's his
treat at the Newman Café
(up to $10) Here's
the rules:
- Print out the portion of the Newman web page that includes your photo.
- Try to find Fr Doug at Newman (ya gotta find Fr
Doug - there's no use going straight to the Café,
they wont know what your talking about).
- Once you find Fr Doug, present him with the web page printout and your student ID while
at the same time demanding that he take you
immediately to the Café to claim your 'up to $5' worth of food.
- DON'T GET GREEDY: You photogenic types might find your picture used several times on
the web site... sorry, only one prize per person
(what? do ya think Fr Doug's made of money or
something?).
- Ordained Clergy, Newman Staff and their relatives
(no matter how cute) are NOT eligible (what? do ya
think Fr Doug's made of money or something?)

Introducing:
Vespers at Newman, Daily at 5:15p |
| Vespers
(Evening Prayer)
is part of the 'Liturgy of the Hours' (also called the Divine
Office), the
official prayer of the Church. The 'Liturgy of the Hours' fulfills the
Gospel command to 'pray constantly.'
Recently, Newman students and extended
community members have discovered the beauty of this ancient liturgy. We
are now gathering daily at 5:15p in Our Lady Seat of Wisdom Chapel to pray
vespers in community.
Everyone is welcome. Copies of the Office
will be provided and we will be happy to guide newcomers through this
beautiful liturgy. |
