Notice to Client:
Thank you, enormously, for agreeing to work with the above-named graduate student as s/he
works to earn the Masters Degree in communication at Hawai‘i Pacific University. Your participation is
vital as our student works to demonstrate mastery of an aspect of the discipline as it is applied to
professional work, and we are grateful for your time and attention. In return for both, and for sharing
whatever resources are necessary for the work, at the end of the school year you will be presented with
whatever product has been agreed upon among the student, yourself, and I.
Please be aware that we are asking for a commitment to our student for the duration of the
school year noted above. Also, be aware that we consider you a member of the student’s Masters
Committee, and thus your input into how well the student has performed will carry considerable weight.
You will be invited to the student’s formal defense, and be asked to help judge whether the work has
been completed satisfactorily enough to merit awarding the Masters of Arts degree.
Students are instructed to maintain the strictest confidence regarding the operations of your firm
and will consult with you before sharing any information with anyone. Please make it clear to our student
what data s/he may use, and share, as s/he works to successfully complete the project.
I am available to you throughout this process and want to be contacted concerning any issue
whatsoever. I consider you a partner in this student’s education, and I look forward to working with you.
