Dear Grad Committee,

I would like to begin by saying thank you for all the effort that was put into the organization and planning of upcoming grad events. I would have liked it if we, as students, could have had more input. This year seems to be unorganized and we feel as students we have had very little input. We understand it is hard to plan such big events, but we would have loved to help out. A meeting with all the grads to recognize our thoughts and opinions that would have resulted in a vote would have worked out well. We feel we should have had more voice in the outcome of the dance and the lock-in.

My concern is that that in order to attend the lock in you have to attend the dance. This isn’t really fair to the people who believe dancing is immoral and would rather not attend. Some grads feel like they are being n forced to the dance because they don’t want to miss out on the grad lock in. What should have happened was the people who didn’t want to attend the dance could come to the lock-in. I know that this way the risks are higher, but if some where to check students and there bags at the door and possibly have a breathalyzer, these problems would be fixed.

Thank you again for the time and energy that was put in to the planning or M.E.I. grad 2007. I do appreciate you reading this letter and hearing my concerns. Contacting me would not be necessary but if you have more questions please feel free to call.

Sincerely,

Janelle
