My opinion is no. I think people will be challenged
enough sharing their views with the committee let
alone the "entire world' via the internet!

However, I think it would be a great idea for a 
larger public meeting which could happen as a result
of the planning process.

But feel free to stop by regardless, and thanks...

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

Glenn, speak for yourself when it comes to everything!   ;-)
 
I don’t agree the best possible choice to “take the lead” of an “actual”
meeting 
would be a journalism organization. I don’t particularly find your
comments flattering
to me or the rest of the stakeholders who volunteered. The committee
meeting will
be “actual”, ”legitimate”, and “responsible in it’s process.
 
As usual. you are being provocative. Lets keep it simple for now.
 
The UC-Review volunteered to assist the community with a meeting after
the entire room
of stakeholders voted and thought it made sense for the “community” to
own the process, 
hopefully assisting us by moderating a forum or giving publicity will
not mean supplanting 
our voices in the direction of the effort.
 
I will be looking in the UC-Review tomorrow to read how the meeting was
reported as an 
indicator.
 
I think it is a good idea for the UC-Review to assist the community in
any way possible,
particularly from the publicity side but we have many options outside of
any newspaper.
I am curious to hear what everyone has to say tomorrow.
 
Again, we are just starting to turn the wheels, I have heard all the
comments thus far
from the listserv members, many..who for whatever..reason can’t make it
to the meeting
tomorrow.

Re: [UC] Planning Committee Meeting RE: UCD

2007-06-12 Thread Glenn
Sharrieff,

Please remove my name from the list of your committee.  I will not be 
participating.

I'm sorry you embraced this idea that I brought to your Spruce hill 
neighborhood alliance all those years ago.  What you are doing is nothing like 
the idea I promoted and you two rejected.  

I'd like to see the community own the process of a community meeting, not you.  
I wasn't being provocative I was being sincere.  Our community newspaper 
volunteered to do their job at this important time for our neighborhood.  We 
should appreciate them and not try to read "as an indicator"  They have always 
published different sides when issues arrived. 

I will be looking in the UC-Review tomorrow to read how the meeting was 
reported as an 

indicator.


I find that statement distasteful and an indication of how your meeting would 
move forward.

Their very profession demands certain standards that make them a very very good 
choice to be involved,  Don't tell me that because several of us signed a 
contact sheet that we chose you as our community leader.  We have gotten that 
enough. 

And if I am interpreting this message correctly, you didn't thank the Review 
and invite them to your meeting.  I signed the contact list and you never asked 
me if I could even attend tomorrow. Since I'm on this committee, I find that 
interesting.  Is that an indication of the involvement of the other 
stakeholders of which you speak?

Very disappointed,
Glenn Moyer
