Subject: Job Announcement Posting Requested
I have read your site regulations and understood that I would not need
to join the list in order to post an item of interest. I am an alumnus
of this graduate school, and I do think this job posting would be of
interest to your graduates. I am copying the announcement in this
e-mail and attaching it for your consideration.
I will be out of town for the remainder of this week and would
appreciate it if you would post for me, if you decide that it is
allowable. Thank you.--Susan Rogers Blakely
