[Letter from Bill McCarter to Janice Wiggins, May 8, 1992]

Photocopy of a letter from Bill McCarter, co-director of North Texas Institute for Educators on the Visual Arts, to Janice Wiggins, Dallas ISD. McCarter mentions that Wiggins appears to have excessive demands by the district, and he would like to discuss options of relieving Wiggins of some of her responsibilities. McCarter asks Wiggins if she could give them any names of appropriate individuals who would help with some of the pressure. McCarter then mentions an agreement between Dr. Marvin Edwards and the North Texas Institute for Educators on the Visual Arts, stating that Edwards could provide six art teachers who will devote time towards the DBAE program, and ask Wiggins if Edwards or other officials could be reminded of the commitment and honor it. If the Institute is not able to document the in-kind contribution by the district, NTIEVA is in trouble with both the Getty and the Marcus Foundation. McCarter ends the letter saying he'll call in the next few days to discuss the best course of action. Copied on the letter is Jack Davis.
