Podcast STRS Board meetings? Why not?

From John Curry

PODCAST - IF our Ohio State Board of Education meetings can be podcast to all why can't Ohio State Teachers Retirement System board meetings also be podcast to all? This way all STRS stakeholders can see their elected officials in action and not have to drive through the ice and snow to the meetings. Or, for that matter, fly thousands of miles just to see how their retirement system is being run! They could (and should) be able to see this information in the comfort of their own homes. Here is a link to those Ohio State Board of Education meetings podcasts: https://www.ohiochannel.org/collections/state-board-of-education?fbclid=IwAR1cyLSyhlohgibMWtlahF8JTyNdl2DEhsxVCTC1wdABGTF6Elk1gnYlrEI

From another retiree:

Ask Mike Nehf why STRS refuses to video board meetings. Answer: We can't afford it. How many poor school district and municipalities provide video? Mike Nehf says we want to be transparent, but refuses to release salaries to Ohio Auditor website. And now they are discussing limiting topics members can speak when addressing the board.
