Phonebook Survey
Please help us by completing a short online survey.
The University is considering the reduction of Butte County phone book distribution for the following reasons:
• The time/cost required to distribute phone books on campus
• The time/cost to collect old phone books for recycling
• The quantity of waste generated by using a paper-based phone book for only one year
If phone books are reduced, instructions on utilizing free online phone directories would be provided.
Your input from this short survey will help us determine if further phone book reductions are a viable option.

The Sacrifice (Offret-Sacrificatio) (1986, Sweden) 145 min. Directed by Andrei Tarkovsky. Sponsored by the Humanities Center and introduced by Troy Jollimore, Philosophy and Humanities Center*
This film is a haunting vision of a world threatened with nuclear annihilation. As a wealthy Swedish family celebrates the birthday of their patriarch, Alexander (Erland Josephson), their mood of celebration turns horrific when news of the outbreak of World War III reaches their remote Baltic island. With his arresting palette of luminous grays washing over the bleak landscape—captured on film by Ingmar Bergman’s longtime collaborator Sven Nykvist—Tarkovsky conveys the family’s psychological devastation as they enter into a waking nightmare. Faced with certain extinction, Alexander performs the ultimate sacrifice, entering into a Faustian bargain with God to save his loved ones from the “sickening, animal fear” which grips them. The director’s final film, made as he was dying of cancer, this is a profoundly moving personal masterpiece, a redemptive tragedy steeped in unforgettable imagery and heart-wrenching emotion.
- Part of the Humanities Center’s year-long theme “Memory, Nostalgia, Ruins.”
