Has anyone recieved the engineering note from Swarthmore?

I’m a new poster but long time lurker here. As a Swarthmore alum with a D applying to schools, it was interesting to see her reaction to the non engineering version of the mailing.

The mailing was made to look personalized with an adcom’s signature, but, in fact, it was merely a mass mailing copy with her name written in above the hand written part of the note. This was insulting to both her and to me, it was like one of those cheap sales mailings.

Swarthmore should know better…the excellent message in the copied article was lost in the shoddy delivery.
