I was there and listened to the comments that did not have anything to do with the task at hand. The presentation on the need for this process, the goals and some of the benefits to Lehigh was good. Many in attendance just wanted to air their frustrations which was a shame because this meeting could have been very educational.

Nevertheless, the work will continue to move forward. Hopefully this effort will make quick progress and avoid some pitfalls.

UPDATE:
There are now over 56 committed candidates attending the Candidates’ Forum at Lehigh Senior High School on Thursday night.
