Dear Ms. Williams:

 

This letter comes to you as per your letter dated September 27, 2010, and as per our subsequent phone conversation prior to my scheduled meeting with the Chancellor on October 29, 2010.  You called shortly before the scheduled meeting and advised that the meeting had to be canceled because the Chancellor had a conflict and that the Chancellor had no immediate openings.  I asked you to send me a letter to that effect so that we could schedule a meeting at a later date.  I reported this to the members of our group.

Here we are six months later and still have received neither a letter from you nor a resolution to the complaint.  Maybe the Department of Postsecondary Education has bigger problems than we thought!

 

I now request that we resume the process for handling our complaint.  We also expect the Department of Postsecondary Education to take this matter seriously and to handle same in a more timely manner than has been demonstrated in the past.

 

 

Sincerely,

 

 

 

Martin J. Powers
