Dr. Susan Hockfield Elected 16th President of MIT

[Phillip A. Vasquez, UA Vice-President]

Dear Undergraduates,

The Student Advisory Group to the MIT Corporation Committee on the Presidency is
pleased to wholeheartedly endorse and welcome Dr. Susan Hockfield, the new
President-Elect of MIT. Throughout the entire search process, both
undergraduate and graduate student feedback and guidance were actively sought
by the Faculty Advisory and Corporation Committees.  We appreciate that our
hopes and concerns were fully acknowledged and our recommendations taken
seriously. We very much look forward to a productive working relationship in
the years to come between the Hockfield administration, the Undergraduate
Association, the Graduate Student Council, and the broader MIT student
community.

Hockfield, please visit http://web.mit.edu/newsoffice/


Sincerely,
Harel Williams & Phillip Vasquez
UA President & Vice-President
