To: Murray Lawson / University Services
Thanks Murray, and I have a few follow up questions for you.
Conference Services should be meeting to discuss bedding issues. OUS has stated in earlier message about checking on supplies --- water – in our storage containers and you’re now ready for distribution. It looks like OUS is responsible for the distribution --- but who will help with the distribution? How will get the help you need (I assume water is heavy). Where are the distribution points? I think all of us would like to know where we need to queue up to receive water.
If you need student volunteers, it looks like Jeff Jordan and OSL will be organizing this type of support. How will you contact Jeff?
What can be done about water distribution? – When and by whom.
Health Services will probably need water more than anyone at this point. How will they communicate their needs to Murray?
Where is the man power to move the water? Who would be best utilized to begin organizing student volunteers (we may not know how to use them yet, but I anticipate they will be a valuable asset).
In the Conference Services plan it states “someone” is responsible for getting rooms at the Courtyard Marriott (it’s in conference services plan, but no point person is identified with the authority to make those room reservations). Who will make this decision? Has a pre-arrangement been made with the Marriott? Is this an arrangement approved by OBP – does this responsibility fall back to Finance or Craig to pursue? Who will cover the cost and decide who gets to use the rooms – students, essential staff, volunteers, etc?
