TO: Members of the tutorial

FROM: Dave Gordon

I’ve confirmed arrangements with Chuck Lewis, an assistant city editor at the Sun-Times and a part-time Medill faculty member, to have dinner with us next Monday and sit in on the tutorial session. He’ll be up here about 5:30 p.m. and I’ll bring him over to Sargent, where we’ll try valiantly to find seats in the CCS dining room.

Also a reminder re: the fact that Sue and I would like to have all of you over to the house for supper and a wrap-up session for this quarter on where the case study work stands… Figure on coming over about 5:30, and staying at least until 7:30, and later if you can – somewhere in there we’ll sneak in about 40 minutes worth of discussion and planning on the Sears Tower project.

As of 2 p.m. this afternoon, the case study assignments I have are as is follows:

Media Coverage of the controversy: …

Legal Aspects: …

Sears (and general business position: …

Governmental Control Processes: …

Environmental and Aesthetic Impact: …

Experiences Elsewhere, Guidelines for the Future: …

That leaves several people with choices to make, and hopefully, at least a couple of these choices will get us additional people working on the Sears-business positions aspects, and on control processes. The legal aspects are adequately handled now, but I’d consider the others all available, at least until further notice. If you have preferences, therefore, please let me know (a note in my mailbox in Room 205 is fine) immediately – if I haven’t heard by the end of the week, I’ll leave you a note with your assignment on it.
