You may want to use a four-paragraph structure as outlined below:
1 . Identify yourself and your general reason for writing.
2. Present the problem in a convincing manner, but avoid name-calling. blame-placing, and digressive complaining. You may want to buffer your "complaint" by noting something positive about the program.
3. Present the solution in a concise, but detailed manner, trying to keep in mind and respond to the probable reasons for this proposed action not having been initiated before.
4. Conclude and offer to discuss your proposal or to lend your assistance in its implementation.
A courteous tone is important. You are unlikely to convince someone to undertake your proposal by implying that he or she is stupid or incompetent. Including some praise for the positive aspects of the program may put your reader in a more receptive mood.
