The 1980-1981 volume of The Echo, Taylor University’s newspaper.
This volume continues the current volume numbering system but divides the school year into two separate volumes. Due to later volumes trying to correct the jumps in the volume numbers other volumes share its numbers. These are the two true volumes 83 and 84 according to the new numbering system, and the later volumes are another set of errors.
Missing: 84:6.
