The 1976-1977 volume of The Echo, Taylor University’s newspaper.
The previous volume was labeled as Volume 77 at various points though it was really Volume 57. Due to later volumes continuing this numbering error, it was the last volume to be labeled according to the previous order (Volume 57). This volume starts with the new numbering system as Volume 78 and proceeds 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.
Missing issue: 78:14.
