Received May 7, 2008

"Dear Mr. Reynolds:
Governor Charlie Crist received your letter regarding the issue with the digital output lab at the Univeristy of South Florida and, as usually the case with university issues, he asked our office to get back in touch with you.

The situation you outlined is an issue best addressed by the dean of the college involved. I would encourage you to bring this to the dean's attention.

If you decide to take this to a higher level, that would bge the University of South Florida Board of Trustees. The Board of Trustees is charged with the responsibility of overseeing the operations at USF.

You can send an e-mail message to the Board of Trustees at board@trustees.usf.edu

You can write the Board of Trustees at:
University of South Florida
Office of the Board of Trustees Operations
4202 E. Fowler Avenue, ADM247
Tampa, FL 33620

You can call the Board of Trustees at (813) 974-1678

If I can be of further assistance, please don't hesitate to contact me. My email address is bill.edmonds@flbog.org

Sincerely,

Bill Edmonds
Director of Communications
Board of Governors"
