The Chancellor is scheduled to be in DC on 1/21 to discuss the AAF. We have decided to issue advance questions in hopes that the presentation will cover our concerns and afford the Chancellor the opportunity to incorporate the answers into his presentation. So if you have any list them here. The cut-off date is 1/3/11.
In our last Aggie Club meeting we were told the start of the AAF was pushed to 7/1/2011.

Did you receive a recent letter from Joe Parker, Interim President, of AAF? It is quite informative, as well as optimistic. Hopefully, the chancellor's visit to DC will answer many concerns and allay much of the fear and worry by many supporters. Change can be difficult, but it can also be a good thing. Let's hope that all of us can forge ahead (with sound intelligent input) and find the change that will be great for our University. We deserve, as alumni and supporters, to have our University's athletics program restored to that proud level it once occupied. We are entering unchartered waters, so patience, perserverance, intelligence and outstanding leadership will take us back to that level of greatness. |

I'd like to hear some details on the Athletic Endowment Fund. How has fundraising been going toward reaching the $1 million target? Will the AAF manage it or will it have it's own separate Board?

Decks, were informed of the Chancellor’s whistle stop in Charlotte to discuss the AAF? I understand there was one. Should I add this question to the list? |

That's another issue that pisses me off as well because only Aggie Club members ever receive notice. I give faithfully to Aggie Athletics yet I have never received an invitation when the chancellor or AD is in town to speak.  |

The meeting held in Greensboro was well attended. It consisted of Aggie Club and Victory Club members. I believe DC is the last stop. Think he has already been to Durham, Charlotte and Atlanta. |
