Dear President Lederberg:

In March, I sent a letter, on behalf of Bob Keeshan, to the
chief executive of each cIcu member institution informing

them of the trustee/delegate network proposed by the Committee
of Correspondence, since renamed the Council of Governing
Boards (CGB). I also requested that each chief executive
designate a trustee from their board to serve as a delegate.
As of today most cIcu members have a trustee representative
serving with the Council. Your institution is one of the

few which has not named a trustee/delegate.

The delegates will not be required to attend any CGB meetings.
At the regular meetings of their institution's board, they
may wish to address public policy concerns raised in cor-
respondence they receive from CGB. It is the intent of the
CGB Board of Directors to be able to print the names of

these prominent trustees on publications like the one
enclosed. We are planning a revised edition of this Primer
which would include a list of our trustee/delegates. We
would like to include a name from your board of trustees.

I would appreciate your designating a prominent member of “a
your board as soon as possible. I look forward to hearing

from you.

Sincerely

ersy & fe

Henry D. Paley
