Dear Monte,

I'm writing to follow-up on the email I sent last month to generate
interest in the BOLT program. Unfortunately, we have not yet received an
interested candidate from your College but would sincerely appreciate it if
there were any particular faculty you could nominate that might be a good
fit.

If you have any interested faculty members, can you please send them along
to me by January 12? We would really like to submit registration for these
faculty beginning the week of 1/15. We are limited to around 10-15 seats
for all of campus, but I definitely wanted to reach out to you directly
before we begin enrollment.

Thanks!
