Stranger in a Strange Land

All,

Ya'll overwhelm me. I'm the only engineer in the bunch and therefore do not have it within my abilities to continue this precident of haragues. I just don't have the time nor the desire to outline my arguments so thoroughly.

Here is my attempt to understand what is going on:

1. Chris doesn't want Block to cater to the desires of those who do not respect the brand (i.e., North Campus frat boys)

2. Jason does not believe that by reorganizing the schedule of movies we are changing the brand, merely expanding our scope


Based on these assumptions, I would like to express my own thoughts on the matter.

I believe that more visibility is important. Any way to do this is worth it. If that means placing specific movies on specific nights in order to draw more of a crowd, even if those in the crowd seem less than ideal, should be done.

We need flyerers. I know everyone hates it but if we don't do it, we are invisible. We have said that maybe flyers are a thing of the past and that everyone reads their email, but I hate emails. I delete and ignore emails and the time I spend reading messages, I could be doing something more productive. On the other hand, I have time to read flyers because I can't be doing anything else while walking to class. Flyers ARE important. We should just suck it up and freeze our tushes off for the cause.

There, my post is complete. We need more visibility and we need flyerers.

Love you all,
Emily
