    Re: “What's Up, Chuck?
    To all readers of this article,

    Although a meeting between the DU Pres. C. Dougherty and the Duquesne Swim Parents and Alumni have been set, please bear in mind that C. Dougherty only agreed to meet with the parents and alumni after being strongly urged by the Spiritan Priests and some Members of the Board.

    The Parents and Alumni are coming to this meeting well prepared and with a viable (this is an understatement) proposal on how to fund the Duq Men's Swim Team.

    What I am apprehensive about is the fact that C. Dougherty and G. Amodio are coming to this meeting forced by the powers to be. I hope and pray that they come to this meeting with an open mind and ultimately make the dicision to reinstate the men's swim team based on the proposal presented to them, and not with their dictatorial and absolute decision that their original decision (to cut men's swim team) has been made and that is final.
