[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3][COLOR=black][COLOR=black]As you may recall, earlier this year I appointed an advisory committee to study the question of whether UNC Charlotte should launch an intercollegiate athletics program in the sport of football. Chaired by Mr. Mac Everett, the advisory committee has been meeting since the spring to collect and understand information about college football programs, including their possible benefits, costs, and consequences. It is expected that a report for my review and consideration will be submitted sometime early in 2008. [/COLOR][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]

[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3][COLOR=black][COLOR=black]At this point in their deliberations, the members of the advisory committee wish to conduct three open public forums to hear from three key campus constituenciesāstudents, alumni, and faculty and staff. [/COLOR][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]

[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3][COLOR=black][COLOR=black]On behalf of the committee, I am inviting you to attend the session for students scheduled for Monday, November 5, 2007 from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM, in the Salons C, D, and E of the Barnhardt Student Activity Center. If the student perspective is to be fully considered by the advisory committee, then your participation is vital. Obviously, it is difficult to find a time that works for all, so I hope you will make an accommodation in your personal schedule if that is possible. [/COLOR][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]

Technically, the students have already spoken via the poll. This sounds like an attempt to get the āantifootballā people up front. Maybe Iām just a conspiracy theorist though. :huh:
Flyers should be printed up and posted around campus reminding people of this event. JMHO.
Hmmā¦ I think the students who are supposed to attend this were supposed to be invited. Im assuming the invitation has now been opened to all students, because they didnt get a good reply.
Bring your signs boyās, lets show them we want CHARLOTTE FOOTBALL!!!

I wonder when the alumni session will be. And oh to be a fly on the wall during the faculty session. Maybe Sideshow can give us an idea of what happens there?
You would hope that the salons get packed for this. There should be a push by the RAās to let all their residents know about this issue. Make it a hall event. Every student should have multiple reminders that this event is going to occur.
screw the salons, we need to do it marshall style where we have thousands of students chillin outside yelling we want footballā¦or a more inspirational chant thatās school specific like forty ninersā¦
if you havent seen we are marshall, this may be a small spoilerā¦but not really
in that movie, after the crash, the board has a meeting to talk about disbanding football, which is closed to the public. one of the players that was injured and wasnt on the plane busts into the meetingā¦and they say if he has anything to say he thatās not the place, and he says he ādoesnātā¦but they might.ā thereās a huge crowd outside and they chant āwe are marshall.ā if thereās ever a time iād have to point out wanting football the most, it was seeing that part of the movie.
I got a invite today too!!! I wonder if I should go into this very professional and just SHUTDOWN and OWN crystal gay moore, or if I should just clap and make noise the whole time.
