LETTER: 100 Days problems were unintentional

---

The Senior Committee would like to address the events which took place Friday, Jan. 31 at the Hundred Days party.

First and foremost, we would like to apologize for any inconvenience the party may have caused. We had organized an event which all members of Rice University could attend and enjoy, and we were extremely disappointed that, at the last minute, things did not work out as we had planned.

We would especially like to apologize to those students who are under the age of 21 and were not able to celebrate Hundred Days with their senior friends.

This was certainly not our intention and the events that unfolded throughout the evening were obviously not what we had envisioned and unfortunately beyond our control.

It is our hope that the circumstances surrounding last Friday's party will not lessen your support for the Class of 1997.

If you have any further questions about what happened or the action we are taking, please feel free to contact any one of us.
