Sounds like a really cool ideaâŚdid they just come up with this idea yesterday though and decide to do it on Friday? The other comments make it seem like it isnât a surprise that this is hastily thrown togetherâŚ
So one day of notice and in the A.M. Guess this is just for students, then. Not like any of them have morning classes, either. Sounds like a half-assed endeavor to me. Hell, except for this board, i wouldnât even know about this now. Guess those 35 years of 49er Club membership donât count for much!
It was during setup for the engineering picnic. I drove by while getting stuff setup for picnic. Seemed like a turnout I would expect with notice given. Didnât even go all of the way up one section in the soccer stadium from what I could tell. Maybe someone else can give better account.
I know of two staff members who were telephoned and asked to come down so there would be more bodies if that answers you question. Sounds like this card will be MAJORly photoshopped.
