The Maysan University was once known for its high standards in business and engineering, but most of the texts at Maysan University were destroyed during Sadam Hussein's Regime and they have not been able to get the central government to allocate enough money for the purchase of new texts. The books that they do have are outdated and not adequate for a new generation of business leaders and engineers. But you can help! If you have a few *current* (ie, published in the 21st century) engineering text books on your shelf that might be put to good use in the hands of Iraqi faculty and students and would be little missed, please donate them to benefit Maysan University. The books can be used or new. You can either bring them to the CoE office in Covell or contact Jim Lundy at (541) 737-5235 or Jim.Lundy@oregonstate.edu to arrange a collection time. Your donations are much appreciated! [posted 4/28] KUDOS TO
