*tl;dr - help welcome a new administrator! Write a letter about MIT here
<https://welcomesuzy.wordpress.com/write/>.*

Suzy M. Nelson is currently the dean of Colgate College in upstate New
York. She has been an administrator at Harvard, Cornell, and Syracuse. On
July 1st, she's replacing Chris Colombo as the Vice President for Student
Life at MIT. She's going to be working with the Chancellor on important
decisions about the future of dorm and Greek life, of student activities,
facilities, and support services. But before she does that, she needs to
get to know MIT.

We're hoping you can help with that. We're on a committee that's preparing
a document to introduce her to some basic facts, but basic facts don't tell
the MIT story. What is it like to be an undergrad here? What do we do well?
How could things be better? What should Suzy Nelson visit when she gets
here? How do you interact with the Division of Student Life?

No matter what you write about, no matter how much or little you write, we
want your perspective and your story to be included in the mix. It doesn't
matter if you write a few sentences, a restaurant list, or a three-page
essay with footnotes. Please contribute your thoughts!

We're planning to close submissions on *Sunday, May 15th*. But we'll be
putting things up as we get them, so the sooner, the better!

Thanks!
