[Vision2020] What in the world?

[Tom Hansen]

What Saundra is saying is true.

As Rose Huskey had mentioned in a posting last week, I do have several
documents concerning Christ Church's "renting" of the Kibbie Dome (as well
as various other facilities on the UI campus).  These documents will become
publicly available within the next few weeks.

This information that Saundra was so kind to enlighten to V2020 is merely
the tip of the proverbial iceberg.

Take care, Moscow.

We could learn a lot from crayons: some are sharp, some are pretty, some are
dull, some have weird names, and all are different colors....but they all
exist very nicely in the same box.

and events to take place in the Kibbie Dome."

Wow, prices must have plummeted since then!  Donavan, do you mind sharing
with us when you were in student government and for what period of time that
$10,000 rental would have covered?

According to the contract, the Christ Church Trinity Festival is paying a
mere $3000 to rent the Kibbie Dome for four days (8 AM  8/7 to 8 PM
8/10/05), which amounts to only $750 per day.  Even including the associated
costs ($1500 set-up/load-in; $1000 breakdown; $800 maintenance/custodian),
the total facility rental is only $6300, significantly less than what the
ASUI charged when you were there.

Does anyone have any idea of why the cost has come down so much?

Sheesh -- I sure wish (as I'm sure do the students) the costs of other
things on campus would have similarly decreased!
