To The Editors:

In recognition of the launch edition of The Hoot, I extend best wishes from the staff and leaders in the student life group. Over the years, Brandeis has enjoyed similar start ups in the world of campus journalism. These publications have found varied success and longevity, and all have been a benchmark for our enthusiasm and spirit as a campus community.

I look forward to reading The Hoot and to watching your progress as a newspaper and as an organization.

Good luck.
Rick Sawyer
Dean of Student Life
