The 1975-1976 volume of The Echo, Taylor University’s newspaper.
This volume is full of numerical errors. It is labeled as Volume 77 at various points though it is really Volume 57. Due to later volumes continuing this numbering error, this is the last volume to be labeled according to the current order (Volume 57). The following volume will jump to Volume 78 and proceed from there. Thus readers should note that Volumes 58-76 are not missing from the repository collections, but are absent numbers due to labeling errors. Errors are labeled individually per issue.
