Well I went over my numbers again.
Out of 37 colleges on a list with websites, after 2 hours of work.
I got 24 College President names
24 Telephone numbers
13 Valid email addresses.
Most colleges don't publish email addresses for fear of SPAM.
I've sent him a recommendation to
1. Buy a snail-mail list
2. Send 1 letter with 2 follow-up letters
3. Harvest the email addresses.
But my boss has waited 3 weeks and now can't say he can't deliver. I could
have told him 3 weeks ago and we could have come up with an alternate plan. So
I guess I'll be the scapegoat.
I hate incompetence.
