This sounds like the stuff that my university department used in the late 70s, except it was more purple than pink. I went back 20 years later to visit my former tutor, who by then was head of department. When I asked him what his greatest achievement was he replied getting rid of the purple loo paper and replacing it with something more comfortable! Far more effect on the morale of the students and staff than anything to do with teaching. -- Money can't buy everything. That's what credit cards are for.
