I too am a UCHS member and I heard nothing about this project through
UCHS. I don't hold this against its leadership; I'm grateful for what
they inform us about, but no all-volunteer group can be expected to
provide perfect information for free. Only those of us who are paid to
disseminate information can be held to such a standard -- 100% eprfetcion.
It might be fun to read a couple of articles in upcoming UCHS Newsletter
issues about splashy local real-estate cases with a historical hook. If
UCHS leadership would like to get into the public-meeting business, it
could be done and it would be fun, but it'd be a hassle. Likelier to
succeed if a few directors and members work together in a
non-threatening way to develop basic meeting skills, and also to avoid
blowing up the association by accident on its maiden tour of duty at the
podium.

Hi, Glenn,
Glad you asked about whether any of the 500 UCHS members attended a
meeting on the Campus Inn" project (I only learned the name at
yesterday's Historical Commission hearing).
As one of the five hundred plus members of UCHS (I only learned THAT
by reading Belynda Stewart's letter in the UC Review) I can only say
that I did not attend any such meeting. I only learned about it in the
October 10th UC Review. When I voiced my opinion about it in the
October 17th UC Review, based on what little I could glean from the
article, I was told, in effect, that I should mind my own effing
business. So I'm just as confused as you are!
Karen
