re-imagining PA's public #highered for students now and into future. Appreciate hard work of 1k people in our planning, and thoughtful comments from so many whose passion I share for our mission. Onward.

All 3 student governors are for it. They're excited about it.

Pretty clear that many BOG members feel they are doing something really historic and changing.

Well in the Open Comments...pretty clear that atleast 2 of the student governors are on board. One said that 'There should be joy in this'.

They had about 5 Presidents read statements in favor of the consolidation. They've also painted a picture that delaying this further will hurt other non-Triad schools.
Open discussion now.
Interestingly, I feel like the Students may actually be for this more than I thought. I feel like some of the politicians may not be.
I still think it passes. It may pass unanimously.

Sometimes when a BOG member asks a question that may be viewed as negative against the plan...Shapira jumps in and answers too I noticed.
But, there are some BOG (particularly the politicians) that are asking questions about concerns. (Mostly about local communities).

Wow. Edinboro's COT Chair just called in for the Integration too.

I read another comment that was like: Hey, why don't you do a search for new leadership that can run a successful school.

I think as I skimmed through batch 3 of the comments that I read a comment for the Integration from a VP there. Basically that the Integration was their best hope to analyze issues and implement some new thinking/strategy going forward.

I doubt it. Students are face-value yes men on these things. They are afraid to rock the boat with all the suits around. One of the student members is an Edinboro student. I doubt he votes no. Edinboro has been strangely rosy about this - except faculty and alumni.
