>Dear Colleagues:
>
>After signing an agreement with The Johns Hopkins Institutions this
>morning, members of the Student-Labor Action Committee have ended their
>protest in the lobby of Garland Hall.
>
>The Homewood undergraduate admissions office will now resume using the
>lobby as its reception area for prospective students and their families.
>
>The agreement signed today recognizes that fair compensation of our
>employees is an important element in their quality of life and in the
>standard of living in our city and region. It restates the university's
>commitment to principle. It creates a forum for Hopkins, SLAC and all
>other interested members of the Hopkins community to continue pursuing
>these issues. It is a good agreement, and I welcome its signing.
