This letter is in response to Mr. Guidry’s commentary about the student body fee published in the Nov. 2 Skiff. It is not correct that the library was “more than willing to offer more money to cover costs so that the SGA would not have to spend so much.” The pods would not have happened last year without SGA funding. The library enthusiastically supported this project since the need for group computing was so great here in the building. There was no funding in last year’s budget for this project. SGA made it happen when it did. Library, Information Services, and other groups on campus are very appreciative of your support. Thank You SGA! (And Frog Pods have proved so popular that we have a reservation system in place to equitably manage them).June Koelker, Interim Dean
