[Emeritiassoc] Emeriti lunch no-shows

[Edward Baum]

Dear Fellow Emeriti,

Each month Ruth Nostrant must give to the O.U. Inn a minimum number of 
how many emeriti will be at our monthly lunch. This is based on a 
percentage of the “always” list and those who have let her know they 
were coming.

In November a significantly large number of emeriti who had indicated 
they would be at the lunch never showed up. We still had to pay the O.U. 
Inn for the minimum number which Ruth had given them.

If you were on Ruth’s list but did not let her know you were not coming 
please expect to receive an e-mail from me next week asking you to pay.

Please remember: if you have told Ruth that you would be at the lunch, 
either as part of the “always” list or letting her know separately, but 
find that you cannot come, you must let Ruth (nostrant at ohio.edu) know no 
later than the Monday of the lunch week. (We have enough flexibility 
with the O.U. Inn to cover the lunch if an emergency happens to you on 
Tuesday, Wednesday, or even Thursday morning which prevents your 
attendance.)

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you,

Ed
