OK - I'll take Melani's cue:  I see that you don't think much of the UCD,
but I'm skeptical about the items you listed:

---
penn's ucd has made it publicly clear that ucd has a history of corruption,
that it is in violation of irs policy

that it has alienated blackwell.

These are all opinions--I don't think I understand the first one at
all--what kind of corruption are you talking about--what did they say that
made what clear?

I know your reference on the second one--has the IRS taken any action?
Opinions are one thing, actual adjudication is another.

The third one is the one I think I come closest to agreeing with you on, and
even there--I suspect that our Councilwoman will, in fact, be reconciled at
some point, when it is important to her, and her view of what her
constituents want.  All of us sometimes posture or take positions that we
later moderate--and politicians seem to do this a bit more than the average
person.


bill, these are not opinions. they are statements lewis wendell made in his front-page interview in the 27 june 2007 issue of the university city review:

in this published interview wendell stated that ucd had used ucd employees and student workers to work a political rally, and that fenton was involved in this, and additionally in other inappropriate activities, activities involving misuse of ucd resources and violations of policies, including: conflict of interest (using ucd positions for private gain or to obtain favors); using ucd vehicles for non-job related activities; performing outside work or using ucd resources for outside work while on ucd time; violating irs guidelines which prohibit 501(c)3 organizations like ucd from endorsing political candidates or participating in a political campaign.

as to ucd's alienation with blackwell -- that was made clear in the pages of university city review as well. (remember, fenton now works for blackwell, and ucd is now in no position to posture or take positions, moderate or otherwise.)
