Mr. Thomas Johnson, Vice President Social Research Institute 455 University Avenue Saint Paul, MN 55401

Dear Mr. Johnson:

Dr. Sievert, Chairperson of the History Department of University of Winconsin-River Falls, recommended that I contact you concerning a Business Education/Industrial Technology Trainer position with your organization. I am graduating this month and would be able to begin working immediately.

As my resume indicates, I majored in Special Programs, an interdisciplinary program with a comprehensive concentration in both Business Education and Industrial Technology. I am knowledgeable in business and Industrial Technology techniques, Web Design, and have often worked with orignal source documents. In my senior year, I completed an independent research project on the Effectiveness of Power Protection Systems on High Powered PC Applications in Process Control. This project helped expand my knowledge of Backup Power Systems.

I would like an opportunity to interview for a position with your organization and will call next week to arrange a convient time for an interview. I look forward to speaking with you.

Sincerely,

Elder Wilkins
