Daedalus Dinner reservations due Oct. 25. Robin Jacobson, politics and government, will explore how Arizona and New Mexico deal with immigration at the second Daedalus Dinner of the semester, Nov. 1, asking why two states with so much in common respond so differently to the issue. Reserve your seat ($15) by Oct. 25, by calling x3207. Loggers bring vintage Chekhov to the Norton Clapp Theatre stage. Chekhov's The Sea Gull, which opens Friday, is directed by Geoff Proehl, with scenic design by Kurt Walls, lighting by Richard Moore, and costumes by Mishka Navarre. " Few plays speak more honestly and more compassionately about the shortness of life and the challenges of living with an open heart," says Proehl. The show runs Oct. 27–28 and Nov. 2–4, at 7:30 p.m., with a matinee on Nov. 4, at 2 p.m. Admission is $7 for faculty, staff, and students; tickets available at tickets.pugetsound.edu. Do you have budget comments, ideas, or suggestions? Budget Task Force (BTF) continues to work on its budget recommendations for the coming fiscal year. Share your thoughts with the BTF no later than Wednesday, Nov. 22. Write to BTF, c/o Lori Johnson at CMB 1083 or lljohnson@pugetsound.edu. BTF recommendations will be shared with campus members in January.
