To: Tobin Fricke Dear Tobin, As chairman of the selection committee for the LIGO Student Fellowships, I
am please to inform you that you have been selected to receive the LLO
fellowship for the 2006-2007 academic year. You will receive
a $5000 stipend as well as support for travel to the site, two trips to your home
institution, and support for incremental living expenses related to being at the
site. We notice that your application, though submitted for the 2006-2007 fellowship,
indicates that you would prefer to spend the 2007-2008 academic year at LLO.
We are pleased to be able to tell you that you may defer your fellowship up
to one year. Please contact Julie Hiroto The committee and I would like to offer you our strongest congratulations.
The pool of applicants, though small in number, was very strong. We hope
that your time at LLO will be both productive and enjoyable. Best regards,
Stan Whitcomb (for the selection committee)
