<p>Hi John:</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I will not be at the meeting today. Unfortunately, we are putting our dog Chucho down this afternoon, so there are a lot of tears around this house today.<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I wholeheartedly support offering Sofia a tenure-track position--she will be a wonderful colleague. I'll do my best to get all the promotion files to you by the end of day.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Thanks,</p>
<p>Gary<br>
</p>
