<div>Dear editors,</div><div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div>A belated but heartfelt thank you to everyone who gave me suggestions about MIT-Harvard collaborations to put before a donor who might be interested in funding them. I received well over 30 replies, on and off the list, and am amazed by your collective knowledge of the Institute!</div><div><br></div><div>This particularly donor is interested in making a gift that will take effect on his death several decades from now, so many of the shorter-term projects suggested would not be appropriate. Donors with a dual interest in MIT and Harvard, or couples consisting of a graduate from each school, approach our office on a regular basis, however, so I will be keeping all the suggestions on file for future reference.</div><div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div>Again, thank you for all your help!<div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div>Sincerely,</div><div><br><div> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><div class="MsoPlainText">Sarah E.
