Title A name given to the resource Madison Area Peace Coalition E-mails Description An account of the resource The Madison Area Peace Coalition (MAPC) formed fourteen days after the September 11 attacks to oppose (among other goals) the use of U.S. military, economic, or political force – whether direct or proxy, overt or covert -- "that violates the sovereignty or human rights of any nation or people." The Archive has assembled here e-mails exchanges from MAPC dating from the group's founding until late November 2001. September 11 Email September 11 Email: Body The basic content, as unstructured text; sometimes containing a signature block at the end. X et al, at the first meeting, i recall a few (not many, but very vocal) out of towners who were vehement that we 1.name our group "madison area" and not just "madison" and also, that we hold meetings off campus. the second preference was also, i believe, stated from in madison but not on campus folk. i agree that for students willy st seems far. but i also might note that perhaps we have gotten less folk from neighborhoods because we have only HAD meetings on campus. in light of this, i certainly don't want to isolate the students out from the group, but i also think that smaller, outreach meetings should be happening in community centers. the arts folk and i are very interested in this concept. i do feel that the neighborhoods need attention too, but so far as coming from out of town, what's the difference between campus and willy st? not much. so i would suggest that we do on campus still, but offer up GOOD parking solutions and bus info in each announcement about the meeting, to encourage folks from outside campus to come in. as well, continue efforts to reach outside the university to people on a day to day level, and advertise for the meetings far into outlying communities. for the sake of saving funds, staying central and reaching students, campus is a good solution, but not the only aspect, and should be supported by consistent advertising out and about. your transitional cc rep from arts, X --- X <X> wrote: > X and all, > > If Wilmar is too far away from campus, then I really > don't know what the point > is of meeting off campus -- it's only on the 900 > block of Jenifer St., parallel > to Williamson St. on Madison's near-eastside.  If > there's a potential problem > with that distance, then I think we should remain in > the campus area and if we > meet in the campus area, why don't we just continue > to meet on campus?  I don't > recall what the idea of meeting off-campus was, > except that it was a good idea > and we should get out in the community.  Does anyone > remember any other > reason(s)? > > In rethinking it, I don't see any reason why we > shouldn't continue to meet on > campus until we get other constituencies involved > which would point to > meaningful different meeting sites.  It would also > solve the problem of spending > that money and more in the future, plus not have to > deal with a difficult > situation of trying to organize student > transportation, on a space for our > meetings which will start to eat up our budget, > which could be better spent on > more important things.  I also remember X > reporting that we were making > less and less donations at the meetings. ===== X madison wi usa                               x September 11 Email: Date The local time and date when the message was written.
