Memo
From: President Hiram Beeker
To: All members of the Department of Information Technology and Management
Subject: Departmental Restructuring
It is with great regret that I announce the retirement of the department's dean, Dr. Martin Johnston. He has served the department with great distinction for 25 years and we will always remember his vast contributions.
Based on suggestions from department members, we will be restructuring the Department of Information Technology and Management. Dr. Herbert Laveson, currently a senior professor of information management, will assume the post of dean. Dr. Laveson will now oversee the splitting of the department into two major divisions: the education branch, under its new director, Dr. M.S. Ahn; and a new research and development branch, under the internationally known researcher, Dr. C.S. Choudhury, whom we have recruited from the Institute of Technology of Bangalore. Dr. Choudhury's area of expertise is the development of new technological platforms that enable businesses to handle larger amounts of data more efficiently. Aiding businesses in their quest to handle information is an area which we hope will prove to be a lucrative source of funding for our educational mission.
Details of our new department structure are provided in the chart below. For the near future, we will maintain our existing structure in the education branch. In the coming year, however, Dr. Laveson will be soliciting recommendations for departmental evolution that will allow us to meet the challenges of the 21st century.

Thanks for your kind remaining.
My grammar isn't good enough, so I think (C) means Dr. Martin Johnston is the new department's dean, I was wrong.
Thank you. ^ ^
