Hi Beth,

I receive emails from you about the SCS admins meetings each month.  Our
department's main system administrator, Tim Doebler, left the department
recently, and we are looking for a new sys admin to replace him.  I was
wondering if you would be willing to pass the information on to the
other sys admins in case they know someone who would be interested in
the job.  Tim had said he would contact you before he left, but I'm not
sure whether he had the time.  I am attaching the job description.

If anyone is interested, they can contact me directly by email or apply
online at the CMU hr web site (http://hr.web.cmu.edu)  The posting
number is 2508.

Thanks,
Daniel
