Paul is also a highly sought after male model, baring his considerable talent for the centerfolds of both Progressive Architecture and Playgirl. CONRAD MILSTER: In addition to keeping the power plant humming, Con- rad is the Dr. Dolittle of Brooklyn. His favorite pastime is to relax in the company of feline friends, and engage in lively con- versation over a bowl of 7Jender Vittles. CELESTE NEWTON: She’s the head circulation clerk in the library.

MARY RIESER: She’s the student activi- ties secretary who coordinates Jeff Kes- sler’s annual haircut. JOHN GILLESPIE: The big man on cam- pus with a small amount of patience.

Jack Minkoff changed his luck one day after he wandered into traffic and was struck by a Pratt personnel director. During three months of hospitalization, Jack recovered fully and stayed off hard liquor. Because of his background in human suffering, he was appointed Chairperson of the Department of Social Sciences. Years ago, Pratt turned a near-fatal accident into the biggest break Jack Minkoff ever got. Pratt Institute LOOK HOW FAR YOU CAN GO AT PRATT 200 Willoughby Ave., Brooklyn, N.Y. 11205
