    SOCk has organized a trip to Mount Graham on Sept. 27-28, and faculty, staff and students are all invited. Not only can you camp out under the stars, but you can also take a special tour of the Large Binocular Telescope, which has mirrors made and measured right here at OSC.

    Please sign up and pay your $5 registration fee in Meinel 403 by Friday, Sept. 19. SOCk wil provide water and Sunday breakfast, but attendees are expected to bring other food and supplies.

    Last year's trip was a great success, and new members of the community are particularly encouraged to come along.
