Dear Dr. Tresidder,

The answers you have received to your
letter to Stanford Alumni in Military Service have
undoubtedly been tremendous in number, and I am
hoping that this one will not arrive so late as
to be useless. Your questions are the kind that
every alumnus with intentions of returning has
had in mind, I'm sure, and the opportunity to
make those thoughts known is sincerely appreciated.

On leaving Stanford in June, 1943, I
had every intention of returning upon completion
of service and during this intervening time I
have only become more convinced of the importance
and value of such intentions. The only change that
did occur in my original plans was the hope of
attending the Graduate School of Business; it didn't
seem as though it would be feasible in view of
the probable duration of war, and age at which
I return. Opportunities afforded by the GI
Bill of Rights, however, have made it possible to plan
again on such a course, and though there is still a
degree of uncertainty, I am looking forward to
the idea with enthusiasm.

As yet, I am still undecided on any
specific type of work for which I should like to
prepare, although I intend to continue with Economics
