A great piece of mail I got lately in how it read to me:
Dear Candice:We here at your alma mater are sending this letter to say thanks for consolidating your loan and to let you know that as far as we're concerned, you're off the hook about repayment on our end. But, we can't just let you go that easy, so even though we know you're gonna be in debt for the next 10 years or so, don't forget to give us a donation when you've got a few extra bucks. We might even put you on the "sucker alums that we bleed dry" list. Thanks for playing, hon, and be sure to donate in your will. You'll be hearing from us for the rest of your life.
Toodles,
Your Old School
Gotta love them.
