The Met State Disconnection was a newsletter that was distributed monthly to the employees of the facility in the early 90's right before closing. The newsletter was an unabashed voice from the staff to the staff. Hospital management and administrators didn't take kindly to these letters due to the content and the "dirt" being told on a monthly basis. These letters were left in cafeterias, posted on corkboards and left elsewhere throughout the hospital. As you'll see, the person behind these letters did not hold back his/her opinion.To this day the writer(s) remain anonymous.

Please note that the statements and stories made in these letters are from the author(s) only and they're not written by me or any other employees or patients at Metropolitan State Hospital. Thank you to the former Metro employees for bringing this information forward. Additional newsletters will be updated periodically.
