Sports

Thursday, April 30, 2015, 10am to 11:30 in the Meeting Room (behind the fireplace)

We will discuss sports, what is means to you personally and what it means to society. Bill will be leading the discussion. Instead of a video to provide background, he will have a live person.

I hate to miss the meeting, but I will be in Ann Arbor for my niece's graduation.

From Bill:
Herb Hartnett retired a few years ago from the University of Maryland after a career in public relations for the athletic department and university.  He came to Maryland from the University of Pennsylvania at the time of the Len Bias matter.  He seems to have been everywhere and to have know everyone in college athletics and has some opinions on the subject. I propose this format:  
1.  Herb will have 20 minutes to talk and discuss sports and society.  
2.  Since everyone seems to have some experience in sports, I propose letting each person in turn discuss his or her experiences and thoughts on the meaning of sports uninterrupted for say 3 minutes.  
3.  General discussion of the ideas brought up.
