Thank you for your letter of March 25, 1991 rega~ding the requestthat John Farago made for certain records regarding the Apple fiascothat he created. Responding in every reasonable way possible hasalso been my approach to this problem. Of course,

only regret thathe did not listen to the many letters

wrote to him regarding areasonable way to handle accounts, purchases, budget limits,receiving procedures and the like, since if he had we and the rest ofthe University, would not be sitting in the position we..now findourself.It is most reasonable to permit John to have access to thepurchase orders that the business office handled and he has nowrequested. Upon the direction of the University's chief auditor,. wewill provide appropriate supervision of the photocopying so that nopaper leaves the Law School and

will ask the business. office staffto allow John or another authorized person, not on my staff, to makethe copies of those Apple purchase orders made by the Law Schoolbetween 1987-90. Nettie has estimated that this copying will takemore than three hours.Please be advised that there will probably be more requests fromFarago for photocopying, if he really wants to get to the bottom ofthis fiasco of his. The purchase orders in the business officerepresent those System Office purchases made with Law School
