Original commentary on these LoIs must be in the College’s hands no later than January 31, 2000. Responses and rebuttals to commentary must be in the College’s hands no later than February 29, 2000.

The April Laurel meeting is tentatively scheduled for Sunday, April 2, and will consider the letters of intent from December. Because it is so early in the month, responses to commentary on the December letters will be due March 26, 2000.

Not all letters of intent may be considered when they are originally scheduled on this cover letter. The date of mailing of the LoI, date of receipt of the Laurel packet, or other factors may delay consideration of certain letters of intent. Additionally, some letters of intent received may not have been scheduled because the administrative requirements (receipt of the forms packet, receipt of the necessary fees, etc.) have not yet been met.

REMINDER: Until the packet containing the paperwork is received, the letter may not be scheduled.
