An STRS thought to ponder

From John Curry, September 20, 2006
Subject: An STRS thought to ponder

Recently (this week), the Dispatch featured a front page article re. the Huntington building that STRS owns controlling interest in.
Speaking of interest-how about a conflict of interest? FORMER STRS appointed board member Judith Fisher was a retired executive from Huntington Bank. Should she have been challenged re. a possible conflict of interest with her Huntington connection, would that challenge have stood up? I think it might have. Maybe she "bailed out" because of the potential of someone bringing this issue up - maybe. Ponder on, I am.
