ListServ:
These are e-mail lists like Econ-Grads. Sending an e-mail to the
list means that everyone on the list receives the e-mail. The convenience
of these lists are that only the list owner needs to keep track of who
is on the list. Managing of listserv lists is done entirely by e-mail.
A student may create a listserv list with the approval of a faculty sponsor.
