Alan As I am sure you know the University does not own or operate the OU Inn David, is the following information not accurate? It is accurate the Inn is owned by the Foundation not the University. The Foundation has it's own Board of Directors. The Inn is operated by a management company again not the university.

David - all I can say is "wow."  From the president elect of the board of trustees I was hoping for a better answer.  All of the loyal bobcat club members on this board give to Ohio University, not the foundation.  Technically they may be seperate entities but in reality it's one big pocket - the foundation collects the money and gives it to the university.  What I was hoping to hear was "as the recipient of foundation funds, I'd be more than happy to look into any predatory or unusual practices."   i could go on but I'll hold additional comments at this time.  Let's just say I'm disappointed by the corportate speak.

I don't recall the details, but the UT Foundation was trying to prevent disclosure of some of their big donors who wanted to remain anonymous, or something of that general nature.  Last Edited: 4/9/2014 11:29:01 PM by OhioCatFan The only BLSS Certified Hypocrite on BA "It is better to be an optimist and be proven a fool than to be a pessimist and be proven right."

When we give $$$ to departments it is run through the foundation. OCF, you are spot on with the Toledo ruling.
