% The material below is a whole big dang thing whose purpose is just to set up a fixed coordinate system for \tikz so that you can put the Department or School address in the upper right-hand side without it moving all around every time you change something in the page.  I think it works.
% Defining a new coordinate system for the page:
%
% --------------------------
% |(-1,1)    (0,1)    (1,1)|
% |                        |
% |(-1,0)    (0,0)    (1,0)|
% |                        |
% |(-1,-1)   (0,-1)  (1,-1)|

%  The next line is for your college, used as a footer.  If you prefer not to have this, just comment out these lines in favor of the line labeled "[[Alternate]]" below

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%  Signature line  %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

% Set your signature line here.
% One can add a signature image in a PDF file using the following code; this requires a file called "signature_block.pdf" to be installed in the same folder as the .tex file.  The vertical spacing (\vspace) and the scaling will have to be adjusted to get things to look correct for your particular signature image. Alternatively, comment out the following line in favor of the one labeled "[[Alternate]]" if you want to sign a paper copy of the letter.

\signature{ 
\vspace{-12mm}\includegraphics[scale=1.0]{img/signature_block.pdf}\\\vspace{-2mm}
\name}
% \signature{\name}  % [[Alternate]]

% This block sets up the address on the right-hand side of the header. 
% The following lines just compile the information you set up into the LaTex letter variable "address" for later use.
% The following command "clears out" the default address so that it can be better set using \tikz
\address{}

\def\newaddress{
\Where\\ 
\Address\\ 
\CityZip\\ 
\TEL\\ 
\Email\\ 
\URL

%%%%%%%%%%%  DATE  %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

% If you want a date different from the current date, comment out the next line in favor of the line labeled "[[Alternate]]".  The ``\vspace{10mm}'' just moves the date down a tiny bit so it doesn't interfere with the header.  This can be adjusted to your preference.
\date{\vspace{10mm} \today}
% \date{\vspace{10mm} 20 September 2020}  %[[Alternate]]

    % This line sets up the return address to the right-side of the OSU logo.  The location is set with absolute node addresses using ``\tikz''.  It can still be a bit fussy, and you may need to alter this a little to get things to look right.  The bit that changes the position are the numbers in parentheses ``at (14.2,2.7)''
