Dear Northwestern University Principal,

 

Hello, I am student at Northwestern University and I wanted to ask you a question. The question is how come most of my family who have gone to N.U. and have also donated thousands of dollars of money still have to pay for the fitness room fee, which is so small compared to the donation that our family gave to the school? My dad came back exasperated last night, because he had to pay about $400 dollars to go to the gym for 18 months. He said that he could just come back but, because he loves and has pride in N.U. that he could not and that he just paid the money as if he's donating to the school. I think the alumni should be treated differently, especially the ones who have sacrificed themselves for the enhancement and betterment of the school. They should be able to use any of the school facilities for free and come and use it as if it is their home. In fact, isn't it their home? I hope what I've said here isn't rude but a good suggestion. And I recommend you talk to my dad the next time. Thank you for your attention.
