Dear ELIZABETH BENNET,
One of the stipulations that we discussed regarding my contract with the university was that if I completed my Doctorate degree and had my thesis published in a national periodical I would be eligible for a raise.
It is with pride that I would like to let you know that just last week my thesis was published in the “Head Teacher’s Review.” I also received my Doctorate degree three months prior and I have included a copy of my certification to this letter. With this I would like to request for a review for an increase in my salary. I hope that you will be able to attend to my request at the soonest possible time. Thank you in advance.
Sincerely,
Kamakshi
