DINOSAUR DAY: At 11 this morning, youngsters from Alpine Public School will be "digging" for dinosaur postage stamps in UW's earth sciences and biology museum, as Canada Post celebrates the launch of its four 43-cent stamps featuring dinosaurs. All afternoon in the museum there will be dinosaur videos and dinosaur cookies; everyone's welcome, and a First Day Cover with the four new stamps will be on sale ($2.50). The museum is on the third floor of Biology 1. BUSY WEEKEND: Correspondence students ("distance students" in the currently preferred term) are visiting UW today and tomorrow for the annual open house, which this year celebrates the 25th anniversary of Waterloo's correspondence program. It began with a couple of physics courses for schoolteachers, delivered on reel-to-reel audiotape, and has grown to the point that in a dozen fields of study, one can do a complete Waterloo degree by correspondence. The students who are visiting today will get a chance to meet their instructors face to face, as well as socializing with one another and attending workshops. Among other weekend activities is a Walk for AIDS on Sunday. It starts in Kitchener's Victoria Park at 11 a.m., and the UW Federation of Students is among groups that are encouraging sponsorships for the 10-kilometre fund-raising event. Sponsorship forms are available from the Fed office in the Campus Centre. All weekend, pairs of students will circle the UW ring road in the annual Charity Run sponsored by St. Jerome's College (proceeds this year go to The Working Centre). And Sunday is the date for the Downey Tennisfest, keeping 72 staff and faculty busy on the courts at the Waterloo Tennis Club. Chris Redmond Information and Public Affairs credmond@watserv1 ext. 3004
