Memo
Date: Aug. 8, 2013
To: The leader of student service department
From: Li Ming
Subject: Telephone fixing
I would like to remind you that we are in need of a telephone for each dormitory. As university students, we need to cope with the daily increasing communications with teachers, friends and people outside the campus.
We need a telephone to get and send message, which is important for us. Though most of us have mobile phones and e-mail address, a telephone in the dormitory is after all the most convenient and cheapest tool of communication.
I hope that you will pay attention to this problem and solve it as soon as possible.
