The Board of Directors
First American Strategy Funds, Inc.

We have examined management’s assertion, included in the accompanying Management Statement Regarding Compliance With Certain Provisions of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the Act), that the Strategy Aggressive Allocation Fund, Strategy Growth & Income Allocation Fund, Strategy Growth Allocation Fund, Strategy Income Allocation Fund, and the Income Builder Fund of the First American Strategy Funds, Inc.

Management is responsible for the Funds’ compliance with those requirements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management’s assertion about the Funds’ compliance based on our examination.

Our examination was conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and, accordingly, included examining, on a test basis, evidence about the Funds’ compliance with those requirements and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. Included among our procedures were the following tests performed as of March 31, 2007 (without prior notice to management) and, with respect to agreement of security purchases and sales, for the period from August 31, 2006 (the date of our last examination) through March 31, 2007:

	•		Confirmation of all securities held by institutions in book entry form (Bank of New York, Depository Trust Company, and Federal Reserve Bank of Boston).

	•		Confirmation of all securities hypothecated, pledged, placed in escrow, or out for transfer with brokers, pledges, or transfer agents.

	•		Reconciliation of all such securities to the books and records of the Funds and U.S. Bank National Association (the Custodian).

In our opinion, management’s assertion that the Funds complied with the requirements of the Act as of March 31, 2007, with respect to securities reflected in the investment accounts of the Funds, is fairly stated, in all material respects.

This report is intended solely for the information and use of management and the Board of Directors of the Funds and the Securities and Exchange Commission and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.
