Life preserver needed? |
December 15, 2014
Dear Claudia,
I remain deeply concerned about the long term future of the UCLA Faculty Center. I believe that this institution remains an indispensable benefit to faculty and a unique asset on campus. Although the hotel will open in 2016, I believe that we can continue to attract meetings and events and sustain our revenue, if we emphasize our unique advantages of offering daylit meeting spaces with garden access, with a private, less institutional service environment and home-like setting.

I respectfully propose the following for closing the deficit by $100,000 per annum.
Thank you for attention and consideration and wishing you a happy Holiday and prosperous 2015.
