Hello Howard:


I am pleased to share with you the official release that has gone out. It
is now public. Congratulations! Good luck on the road ahead and thank you
for your service. CC’d here are colleagues at the Department of Education
and the Commission on Presidential Scholars to handle next steps.


As we discussed, please note the following communications guidance as you
await appointment.


For your protection and so as to not complicate your appointment process,
you should not speak to the press or put out personal releases. If you are
contacted by the media, you should politely decline to speak with them and
may refer them to the press office of Dept. of Education or to the White
House Press Office.


If a third party is interested putting out a press release on your behalf,
please refer them to me, or your appointment contact at Department of
Education.


If an organization is looking for press guidance on releases related to the
announcement, they should be put in contact with Shin Inouye in the White
House Media Affairs office. His phone is (202) 456-6238 and his email is
shin_inouye@who.eop.gov<javascript:_e(%7B%7D,'cvml','shin_inouye@who.eop.gov');>.
Or with Dept. of Ed communications office.


In any press release that goes out on your behalf, we ask that you do not
contribute any quotes to a third party release – as that release could also
complicate your appointment process.


Thank you – and congratulations again,


Fred
