Letter to the curators

I am still writing a letter to the curators. Part of what is taking me so long is the fact that all my classes are giving me a hard time almost all at once, but mostly it is because I'm so afraid of being too blunt! I am working with a book called 「日本語の手紙の書き方」 or Writing Letters in Japanese. It is extremely helpful, but I still need to remember my keigo, avoid being blunt, and get it proofed. Hopefully I will have draft done so that I can give the English version to Katherine for the IRB.
