Dear Bill:
I hope that this note reaches u before you keel over from the
exhaustion that must be associated ith your reelection efforts in the coming
election. I am writing to solicit your s pport for an activity that my staff and I
have planned relative to a week-lon celebration commemorating 57 years of
service that the General College ha provided the state and the metropolitan
area.
During the week of October , 1989, Appleby Hall, the new home of
General College, will be formally re edicated. The 60,000 square foot structure
constructed in 1912 has been rece ly expanded and renovated at a cost of 7
million dollars.
An exciting week of activitie has been planned including a ribbon
cutting ceremony on Monday, Octo er 2, and a dedication ceremony on Friday,
October 6, with President Hasselm leading an academic procession from our
former residence, Nicholson Hall, t Appleby. We expect electronic media
coverage during the week includin' articles in both the Tri n and Dis a ch.
To help us celebrate the de ication of Appleby, we would like a General
College Day proclamation from the mayors of the two metro cities. I am
enclosing one suggested GC day roclamation to make this request less
burdensome. The suggested pro amation may be changed, augmented,
deleted, or reordered according to your priorities, as you think appropriate.
Would you please shepher this either through the Mayor's office or
through the City Council . . . whic ever issues proclamations in St. Paul?
If possible, I would like to h ve the proclamation by Friday, September
29. If that date is too close, then nytime prior to the dedication ceremony on
Friday, October 6.
