Subject: Printshop closing!!!

Dear Dean-
I believe the decision to close the university printmaking studio most unwise. It has a good reputation and these facilities are central to many art schools world wide due to their ability to mediate between disciplines and incorporate new technologies such as digital image into the curriculum. In fact some schools are opening new print shops and expanding such facilities...not attempting to knock them on the head in favor of a cup of coffee!
Sincerely
