Written in big letters with magic marker on yellow notepaper and stuck up with a wad of gum is the following note;
Hi,
Could the person who started the rumour I'm about to change majors come see me ASAP?
That's it.
Helen.

Nadja: "Consuela! Will you please inform Miss Horowitz that CHEWING GUM -- while it no doubt has many excellent uses among cud-chewing beasts such as teenage girls, and has been known to serve in a pinch as a plug for leaks in one's World War II vintage rocket backpack -- was not invented as a FASTENING DEVICE."
*Shortly after the gum is replaced with a thumbtack. The Headmistress will also find a bottle of Absolut Ruby Red by her door with a note of apology attached*
Nadja: (laughter and a smile) "What a clever girl. Apology accepted, dear child."
*peers at the note, her eyes widening a bit as she murmers excitedly to herself, "Helen's changing majors? Oh, I hope she's thinking about switching over to Miss Dia, that would be wonderful!"
Ali gets a curious expression on her face when she overhears Consuela's imprecations on the subject.
However, only a few minutes searching the Intarweb changes it to a scowl. Seems someone ELSE thought of making a mold-able re-usable adhesive for mounting posters and such, already.
She shuts down the computer, muttering something about wanting to go down to wherever this "5M" company is based and effecting a VERY hostile takeover.
