    If by the end of the month they haven't sent the letters I will be going to talk to TCC's dean. After all, in the Nursing Dpt website only says letters will be sent on May. It doesn't specify when in May.

    I support the motion to call the Dean. I don't know who this department reports to but I will be willing to even go to TCC and have a serious talk to someone. I work a couple of blocks from there and it will not be a problem for me.
