Yeah, me to. I'm in one of the categories of people that Alice Tripp is requesting written testimony from ("graduate or law school students who attend class at night, veterans returning from Iraq or Afghanistan who are resuming their studies, or enrollees at community colleges or technical schools here in Texas"), so I'm working on writing that now.
