EDITOR'S notebook 2-04

"We run three classes a day with roughly 20 students per class," notes printing instructor Jamie Pugliese, who's been at the school for 18 years. Pugliese's wish list includes a CTP platesetter to complement the Ryobi, more Mac workstations and a saddle stitcher so they can produce booklets.

He adds that the print shop does about 60 percent of its jobs for the school, producing more than 250 items ranging from letterhead and envelopes to carbonless forms, business cards, certificates and flyers. The remainder is outside work, primarily for the local community. And—being a nonprofit institution—Pugliese is only able to charge outside customers for the materials used in producing jobs, not for the labor or press work.
