July 27, 2012 Letter from President Skorton Re: R. 17

Dear Mitch:

Thank you for the copy of Resolution 17, which modifies the GPSA Activity Fee allocation procedures and conditions of funding, and for the copy of Appendix A, which includes language that requires the Slope Day Programming Board to provide free admission to all graduate and professional students as a condition of accepting GPSA Byline Funding.

I appreciate your diligence in following up on these revisions, incorporating the changes recommended by Counsel, and in addressing my concerns. I would like to reiterate my hope that the GPSA will continue to work collaboratively with the Slope Day Programming Board to reach an understanding of the underlying issues.

I look forward to working with you in the coming year and appreciate your attention to moving the GPSA agenda forward and improving programming for graduate and professional students.

Sincerely, David Skorton
