Sharrieff, Do you have an agenda for tomorrows meeting? I thought Al had some good ideas about the need for a clear focus. Is the idea to discuss the focus and then suggested format for the forum?
I was glad you made the motion to do this forum. I was even more happy when the UC Review volunteered to take the lead. It is so vital that this meeting be perceived as fair and impartial. A journalism organization becomes the best possible choice to conduct the actual meeting and will also allow for the best announcing to the community. Will someone be attending tomorrow? I thought it was cool when you called for Lewis's resignation. You and I probably stick out as the two people that certainly can not moderate such an open community meeting. No matter what we did, the perception would be that it would not be fair and I think that would lead to poor attendance at this very importan time. I'm not sure if I can come tomorrow but I agree that the focus needs to be clear and stay focused on issues such as accountability, transparency, and the claim of community partnership. We need to review the conduct of UCD history and their long term policies and procedures. I want answers about representation and inclusiveness and how UCD can justify hand picking all committees and community representatives and call that partnership? I'd like that list of principals Ray has published to be addressed as well. I'd like to get responses to each of those from UCD or get a refusal to do so. In my opinion, that is the discussion the community needs to have with UCD. The format becomes very important with these meetings in order to stick to the focus that we will want to publish when the meeting is announced. Thanks, Glenn ----- Original Message ----- From: S.
