Lloyd Knudsen and Molly Janczyk on Webcasting

From Lloyd Knudsen, April 23, 2007

To all,

Now I read the OEA minutes that the STRS Board studied the Webcasting idea and doesn't think it's a great idea. How surprising!

When first proposed in a CORE/Damon meeting it was deemed too costly. Now that they've studied the idea and found out it's NOT too costly they think there is no demand for it. How surprising! STRS would do anything to keep being active teachers and retired teachers ONLY source of communication.

Now STRS is worried improper STRS images might be dispersed into the media. How ludicrous! What they really fear are the critical speaker comments and the questioning of board actions by board members getting out to teachers who might actually get unbiased, unfiltered information on their retirement system. Teachers might get a not-so-rosy picture of STRS then, huh? I think it might hurt those rosy STRS survey results.

The more things change at STRS the more they stay the same.
