FB, it might be useful for students to organize, have rallies, wear t-shirts calling for change etc., and in fact some students have come on this board looking for advice on how to get their message out.

In reply to: Frank's Brain 's message, "BLT. The professional, rational and educated way of doing things has not worked for 2 decades! Over the year's rational, sane, concise, beautifully drafted letters have been penned to the Board and to Fr. O'Hare. The approach we all favor has not worked for 20 years. It is my opinion that a more gutteral, less professional and shock value approach is needed. You make perfect sense but that approach has not worked for 20 years! . We need to come up with a different strategy. FRANK MUST GO tee shirts? We need toget the ear of one BOT member to lobby this cause, one who is not spineless and who truly cares about Fordham and not lining his or her own resume." on Sun April 17, 2005 18:59:50

Remember this however. As pointed out by several other posters here. This AD went on a public radio show and blasted the infrastructure of his own organization., The now famous "enemies within" comments, et al. So, maybe I come off crude and unprofessional calling people bums and spineless, However, the AD went on a public radio station and made those comments, so where was/is the BOT when those comments were being made?
